The former first lady posted a photo on her Instagram page this Saturday, October 28, showing off her mammogram. The purpose: raise awareness of the importance of screening.
Although Pink October ends this Tuesday, October 31st, breast cancer still remains an everyday scourge. It’s with prevention in mind that Carla Bruni shared a photo of herself holding a mammogram on her Instagram page this Saturday, October 28. The goal is to encourage women to get tested.
Prevention and education
On October 4, Carla Bruni publicly announced that she had been diagnosed with breast cancer in 2019, and chose Instagram to share her story. In this video, he explained his illness and the protocol he had to follow since then. The singer also said that she was “lucky”, the cancer is not aggressive, and that’s only because she had a mammogram done in time. Urging all women to do the same, she summed it up succinctly. “Get your mammogram every year.”
This Saturday, October 28, the former first lady, still on her Instagram page, again wanted to prevent. We see her, in front of a mirror, dressed in all black, holding a mammogram image. In the title he wrote: “An eighth woman will develop breast cancer. I am one of them. So I take advantage of this pink month of October to convey a message to you. Get your mammograms.” A welcome announcement according to many responses. “I’m afraid… But I promise that I will make an appointment next week,” commented one of his subscribers. Another thanked him. “Thank you Carla, sometimes words make a difference.” Nicolas Sarkozy’s wife seems to have decided to use her Instagram page for prevention, a role that is clearly close to her heart.
