      2/ “This article is—pardon the pun—sobering,” wrote Teresa, who recently finished breast cancer treatment. “I don't know whether I will give up drinking entirely, but I know that I should.”

          3/ “I’m a breast cancer survivor and have to admit I still drink, but less, and often feel guilty when I do,” wrote Kim Mollin, who’s also one of the many parents who tell us they’re worried about their children’s drinking habits.https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2018/04/i-will-never-drink-again/ …

          4/ People had a lot of questions after reading @smencimer’s piece. For example, some readers wanted to know if places with lower drinking rates have lower rates of cancer. Stephanie looked into it:https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2018/04/do-countries-that-drink-less-have-less-breast-cancer/ …

          6/ Several readers asked about the risk of using mouthwash, drinking kombucha, and cooking with alcohol. @smencimer answered those questions and more during a live Q&A on our Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/motherjones/videos/10155722320902144/ …pic.twitter.com/AyIuurfXNR

          7/ Despite the clear evidence linking alcohol to breast cancer, @smencimer says she was told to eat more beans—not cut back on alcohol—to prevent her cancer from returning.

          Replying to @MotherJones

          The only problem with giving up drinking is the social aspect. It's a challenge to be drink free and maintain friendships.
