Soon after, Betty was diagnosed with breast cancer that resulted in the removal of one of her breasts.
This man, DeGeneres continued, used her mothers condition to sexually assault her.

I dont know that breasts are all different.

It is just time for us to have a voice.
Its time for us to have power.
