Let no one say, “Vera never offers us anything good.” Hear ye, hear ye!!
Uju is in med school. Did you know that? There are some perks to having a friend in med school: She teaches me stuff. I am guaranteed of free medical care for the rest of my life (after she graduates, of course). She even offers me free surgeries. Ah, yes… she has offered me a free mastectomy courtesy of Youtube. Whoever said YouTube is useless? I’ll get to the reason why she’s offered me a free mastectomy later.
So apparently – according to Uju, the med student – for each child a woman has, she decreases her chances of having breast cancer by 7%. For each child she breast feeds for a year, she reduces her chances of having breast cancer by 4.3%. Sooooo…. let’s assume that she breast feeds each child for one year. That means that for each child a woman has and breast feeds for a year, she decreases her chances of having breast cancer by 11.3%.
Ah! My people, it is SETTLED!!! 100% divided by 11.3% is 8.8495575 (8.85). Let’s round that up to 9. So that means that if a woman has 9 children, she has completely erased her chances of ever having breast cancer. Very well then! And I thought there is no way to prevent breast cancer! Hear ye, hear ye…. having 9 children will erase your chances of having breast cancer.
The other option, which my med-student-friend was also quick to point out, is to have a mastectomy. [And that is why the nonentity offered me a free mastectomy courtesy of YouTube]. By having a mastectomy, a woman decreases her chances of having breast cancer by 90%. And that is if she cuts off both breasts ooo! Personally, I don’t think it’s worth it. Why cut off both breasts and still have a 10% risk when you can just have 9 children, breastfeed them, and have NO RISK???
Besides, at the rate of 11.3% per child, nine children actually equal 101.7% And considering the fact that I also intend to breastfeed hubby, that should count for another —- I don’t know — 50%??? So you see, I’m good!!! Hear ye, hear ye…. save thy self!!
DISCLAIMER: Though the percentages are correct (according to the med student), this formula for breast cancer prevention has not been medically or scientifically tested and/or proven (to my knowledge). This formula, therefore, is simply Verastic. Try at your own risk.

Temite says
I swear I wonder what you eat to come up with sutff like these!!!! but good luck ooooo 151.01 percent is not bad men. Now If I can just get that hubby and we can start popping out babies left right and center, I will be set…..
Sassy Trends says
Funny as this is it makes a dozen sense to me o..
Nice writeup, excellent initiative but hey.. aw many woman go go do nine babies even if this stuff is scientifically and medically tested and proved 100% gba by God self!..lol
Cool sha
xoxoxo
Vivacious n Chic says
LOL!
You can imagine how interested I was in the post since I'm currently breastfeeding.
The yorubas have a saying that 'chopping off the head is not the solution to a headache', so there goes the option of chopping off the breast.
But, I'm confused here o! Since after chopping off both breasts, a woman still has a 10% chance…… if she has cancer on her chest(where the breasts used to reside) what will we call it? Chest cancer? Residue-of-breast cancer?
Adaeze says
LOL! I no go try o. Don't even try to convince me.
I am sorry I have been unable to follow your radio shows.. as soon as I get back from Naija I will be more flexible.
Gochi says
I'll think i'll try at my own risk.
Vera, i don't like odd numbers, so i think i'll just round it up to a good old Ten.
Abi wetin u think?
Lil Miss Thang says
LMAO!! seriously vera, u did the math and all?? ahhh yaa
funny how your brain works. Keep bringing forth the good stuff.
Olufunke says

A foot ball team of children would not be bad idea , that would be almost 200%

The Life of a Stranger called me says
I have slways said it. You missed your calling in Life. You should have been a statistician ๐ lol.
Deedo says
As usual, you were very funny. your sense of humour is quite huge. I like it.
I think i'd rather recommend the 9 kids option. that's better than cutting the breasts off and having cosmetic replacements.
thanks for stopping by my blog…

Verastically Vera. Thhis your calculation is veree verastic. I shall practicalise it when I see your own etimological example. Until then Let no one say I didn't listen to you. Hear yer Hear ye!
Woomie O! says
These formula can only be verastic!!!
Who woulda thought that the simple way to prevent breast cancer is to have ur boobs sucked constantly???
How convenient!
And just to be on the safe side, have unprotected sex and still forget about contraceptives!!!
Peachy!!!
Thank you Vera, Thank you Uju!!!
I'll spread the word.

Mad people everywhere. Nono, Me i should have 9 kids abi. U dey craz for head. the one i;m breast feeding, i pray everytime i try to breast feed him so that he won't bite me and u r talking about 9. Hubby is scared of my breast because he said breast milk will make him retarded. I do agree with him on the retardation to an extent. I mean look at u and Funmi after drinking my breast milk. I wouldn;t agree 100% dat the breast milk is the cause since both of u were dumb way before drinking the milk but heyyyyy. No thanks with the 9 children offer, i will pass. Good luck to u and my baby father with 10 children sha.
Sweetnothin' says
only vera will come up wt this formula…hmmmm, i see. let me see the ring first then we'll talk about the children
Nice Anon says
Brideprice= fatness. Think about all the time you have to spend at the gym and doesn't having kids stretch out your kini or so I have heard. wetin i know? All the kegel exercises you have to do? Hmmmm chekwa ya eche ooo
Vera Ezimora says
Cici: Don't worry, by the time you have the 9th child, the economy will be better. Since you don't wanna have them cut off, just make sure that hubby sucks the life out of them. LOL.
Chayoma: LOL. Well, in that case, make sure that Oga sucks them very, very well ooo!
Luscious Ron: LOL! Oh, ye of little faith. Why must thou waiteth for an example?? Just believe and do as I have instructed you. Till you do, hear ye, hear ye!! LOL
Woomie: Hahaha. What an oxymoron! To be safe, have unprotected sex and forget contraceptives? LOL. Okay oo. No be me preach that one ooo. The one I preached is constant boob-sucking (and baby-delivering). But if you want to add that your own, go ahead ooo.
Anonymous AKA Busola: You come here and talk to me like that one more time, I will deal with you mercilessly. Tell your hubby to just go ahead and drink the breast milk, so we can know for sure whether it makes people retarded or not. Needless to say, your hubby can't be that smart. I mean, he married you. As for Funmi and your breast milk, we all know Funmi is a retard.
Sweet Nothin: Well, you can wait for the ring all you want ooo! Me, I have told you people what to do.
Nice Anon: Dis babe sef! Wetin dey do you now? Why can't you allow me to enjoy this my formula? Now, ibiago to start mentioning all the kegels et all. Ngwa, eche go'm ya eche, and akwa eziokwy k'ikuru. So what will happen ehn… I'll just stick to 3 kids, but I'll make sure hubby sucks them for @ least two hours a day. This new plan adiro bad abi?
