ANNAPOLIS, Md. (AP) - The governor's mansion in Maryland has been lit pink this weekend to raise awareness about breast cancer.
Gov. Larry Hogan issued a proclamation earlier this month announcing October as Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
The governor's office says about 4,730 Maryland women will be diagnosed with breast cancer this year, and an estimated 810 will die of the disease.
Medical experts say regular breast cancer screening for women should begin at age 40.
