The exhibit is a project of the Blue Cross and Blue Shield of North Carolina (BCBSNC) Foundation, and will be available to view by the public Thursday May 23 – Mon. June 3, 2013. "By hosting the exhibit, we hope we can reach out to Cleveland County women and raise awareness of what to look for with self exams and where to go to if you need a mammogram," said (Cleveland County Council on Aging/Neal Senior Center contact). A North Carolina college student created the Button Chair in 1998 as a tribute to the women in our state who have battled breast cancer. The chair features thousands of buttons, each belonging to a victim or survivor of the disease. The exhibit's most unique aspect is an interactive video highlighting the stories of five North Carolina women who have survived the disease. "Our hope is that through the Button Chair, women across North Carolina will learn more about the importance of breast cancer screenings and start the conversation with their sisters, mothers and friends to make sure we are all taking care of our health," said Kathy Higgins, BCBSNC Foundation president. The BCBSNC Foundation encourages women to learn more about the disease, know their body and what is normal for their breasts, and to follow guidelines for mammograms. Through the Button Chair, they strive to educate women across North Carolina about the role of early detection.

Mini Seminar – Diabetic Effects of the Eye The blood vessels in your body are an important part of eye health. Diabetes can quickly damage these blood vessels by allowing excessive amounts of glucose to remain in the bloodstream. This added level of glucose can eventually damage the blood vessels, including the ones that supply the eye with the needed oxygen and supplies to operate and remain healthy. To learn more, please join April Leonard, RN of Healthy @ Home for this informative seminar on Tuesday, May 28th at 10:00 a.m. at the Council on Aging/Neal Senior Center located at 100 T.R.
