Breast Cancer Awareness Falling box may have saved Cover Hill woman's life

Oct. 22—JOHNSTOWN, Pa. — About a year ago, a falling box at work led Sue Sandoval to find a lump on her right breast that was determined to be cancerous. "I was at work and a box had fallen down and hit me on the breast," said Sandoval, of Cover Hill. But when the bruising went away, the lump didn't, so she knew something was wrong and made an appointment with her gynecologist. "Nobody in my family ever had breast cancer, so they did genetic tests on me to make sure I didn't have the gene that caused breast cancer, because before we moved on we wanted to see what it was about." When the tests came back, it was found that she did not have the gene for breast cancer.

Man City return to winning ways against Brighton to close gap at top

After drawing a blank in the defeat at Anfield last Sunday, this was also a return to the weekly ritual of Erling Haaland putting Premier League defences through a meat grinder. Story continuesThat was Haaland’s sixteenth league goal before the clocks go back, only one of them being a penalty. Haaland thought he had won one himself when the game was still goalless, apparently tripped by Sanchez. It was City’s 600th league goal of the Guardiola era. Yet that momentum building behind an unlikely Brighton comeback was swept away with one swing of De Bruyne’s right boot.
