What is Stupid Dumb
Breast Cancer?
Stupid Dumb Breast Cancer is Ann Marie
Giannino-Otis'
fierce and
unconventional initiative to promote awareness,
early detection and
advocacy with a special focus on younger
women who may believe
(erroneously) that breast cancer is
strictly an older
woman's disease. Since its inception in
Fall
2012, Ann Marie has
beeen featured in magazine and news
stories, made TV
appearances and radio interviews. She has
hosted a variety of
Stupid Dumb Breast Cancer events
including the My
Journey Through the Lumps photo essay at
Fayeteville-based
Pascale's Restaurant in October, Stacks for
Racks at Trapper's II
in Minoa in November and This is my
Journey, a slide show
and presentation at the Fayetteville Free
Library in December.
