Subject: Mastectomy Bill in Congress/Lifetime TV petition

Hi everyone
I recieved the following emial and thought it was worth sharing with all of you.

THIS IS TRUE!!! PLEASE SHARE THIS WITH EVERYONE YOU ARE ABLE TO. THANK YOU.

Mastectomy Bill in Congress


It takes 2 seconds to do this -- and is very important...Please take the time and do it!

Breast Cancer Hospitalization Bill - Important legislation for all women. Please send this to everyone in your address book. If there was ever a time when our voices and choices should be heard, this is one of those times. If you are receiving this it's because I think you will take the 30 seconds to go to this site and 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 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. You need not give more than your name and zip code number.

This only takes about 2 seconds!!

Thnaks
