Thoughtful Thursday- Stand Up 2 Cancer

Cancer has directly effected me via family and friends in various forms. I have a lot of respect for people who are on the front lines in the fight against a disease that in some cases rears it's ugly one morning, changing lives forever. I have even more respect to those who have it and fight it with everything they have!

The odds are 1 in 2 men and 1 in 3 women will get some form of cancer, in our life time! That number is horrendous! WE can help in the fight against cancer and change these odds! Stand Up 2 Cancer is trying to raise money for cancer research. On September 10th, 2010 @ 8pm est YOU can help them meet their goal!

  1. Cancer runs very strongly in my family. Most everyone on my mom's side has either died of cancer or has had cancer (my mom and her mom included).

    Thank you for posting this!
