MASTECTOMY LEGISLATION

Important info for all women. Please forward this to everyone in your
address book. This is a time when our voices and choices should be heard. This
takes about 30 seconds to vote on this issue...and send it on to others you
know who will do the same.

There's a bill called the Breast Cancer Patient Protection Act (H.R. 1886)
which will require insurance companies to cover a minimum 48-hour hospital
stay for patients undergoing a mastectomy. It's about eliminating the
"drive-through mastectomy" where women are forced to go home hours after
surgery against the wishes of their doctor, still groggy from anesthesia and
sometimes with drainage tubes still attached.

Lifetime Television has put this bill on their web page with a petition
drive to show your support. Last year over half the House signed on.

PLEASE! !!! Sign the petition by clicking on the web site below and help
women with breast cancer get the care they need and deserve!! There is no
cost or monetary pledge involved. You need not give more than your name and zip
code number..
