Kim Durham of Ocean Isle Beach was 38 when she found a lump in her breast during self-examination.

The lump didn’t show up on a mammogram, and after doctors performed a biopsy, she was told it was benign.

She was given two choices—she could have it removed or she could wait and see if anything changed.

“The only way you’re going to save your own life is to advocate,” Durham said. “And we’re all living much longer because of early detection.”

Glyphosate is one of the great weed control success stories of the last 50 years. More commonly known as Roundup, this material revolutionized the way we approach weed control in the landscape and garden as well as in agriculture. And, it’s safe for critters, humans and the environment because it attacks a protein synthesis chain that animals don’t have and breaks down quickly once it reaches the soil.
