I'm old enough to ordspråk

I'm old enough to remember years ago when friends and loved ones had cancer. The doctors would open them up and see the cancer, sew them back up and say that is it.

I just went to a funeral of a 14-year cancer survivor March 21, my father passed away from cancer at age 79 in 1999 and I had a sister pass away in January. Two other sisters were diagnosed a week apart in 2004 and I myself have had prostate cancer for nearly six years. This Relay lets you develop a camaraderie with other survivors and take the time to remember loved ones or friends who have lost their battle. It also celebrates life.

I had a rare form of thyroid cancer that took a while for doctors to diagnose, but I beat it. My dad is a cancer survivor and my mother-in-law was killed by lung cancer, so this is very personal to me.

Keith Davis (1909-)

Cancer is cancer. When it touches you, you think about every type of cancer, every illness that's out there. This is one very small way I can give back to another cancer survivor.

I decided to put on a play to benefit the American Cancer Society. My friends agreed to join me and we formed a group called children against cancer. I have had two people close to me die from cancer. I felt the need to do something good in memory of them.

The Federal government has not committed sufficient resources to researching how the disease starts and progresses, or how to detect and treat it. When accounting for all Federal funding on specific cancers, the U.S. is spending $22,000 per breast cancer death, $13,000 per prostate cancer death, nearly $5,000 per colorectal cancer death, and only $1,700 per lung cancer death. Considering that lung cancer is the leading cancer killer in this country -- with only a 15 percent survival rate after 5 years -- this level of funding is unacceptable.

Relay for Life is an opportunity for residents to come together as a community to support community members who have survived cancer, who are fighting cancer, and to remember those who lost their battle with cancer.

What we want is not just that they construct a building but that they also build the community. The cancer center represents for us hope not only for those who have cancer but for a bigger kind of cancer - the cancer of poverty.

Emilio Hernandez

It's just such a great event. For people who have not participated before, it's a time to remember those we've lost (to cancer) as well as a time to be with loved ones and friends.

Relay For Life brings the progress against cancer to the forefront. Many participants are our family, friends and neighbors who have dealt with cancer themselves. Their involvement is proof of the progress that has been not only reducing death rates, but also in the quality of life following cancer treatment.

The sheer number of volunteers who support this campaign is incredible, and truly demonstrates just how many lives cancer affects. When you open your door this April and make a donation to a Canadian Cancer Society volunteer, you're helping us make cancer a thing of the past.

This atlas of genomic changes will provide new insights into the biological basis of cancer, which in turn will lead to new tests to detect cancer in its early, most treatable stages; new therapies to target cancer at its most vulnerable points; and, ultimately, new strategies to prevent cancer.

Molly's a real go-getter. We loved the idea _ anything to bring awareness of cancer of any kind. Cancer touches everybody.
