    Knowing is half the battle
    Monday, January 19, 2009

    Yes, even manly men should be aware of it.


    So today highlights National Cancer Awarness Month. Cancer is one of the leading causes of fatalities all over the globe, no one is safe from it no matter what race, nationality, gender, religion, or social class you are in. Treatments to this day is expensive and doesn't always guarantee success.

    My aunt (mom's older sister) died from cancer of the saecum when I wasn't even concieved yet, she was still in the prime of her life when she was diagnosed with it, and wasn't given a chance to start her own family because of it. According to my mom's recollection, my aunt went through a lot of pain in the process which was a traumatizing and difficult time for all of them.

    For the unfortunate victims of the big C, just keep hanging in there and be strong. For the healthy ones that are not aware, I encourage you to educate yourselves on how to detect and possibly prevent it... because after all, knowing is already half the battle.
