Cancer.
It is amazing how one 6 letter word can instill fear into thousands of people.
It touches all of our lives at some point.
Whether it’s a family member, a friend, or a co-worker… At some point we all know someone who is fighting to see that next birthday.
And cancer doesn’t discriminate, either.
Young or old; male or female; rich or poor; tall or short; athletic or couch-potato; mother, father or child… It affects people of all ages and all walks of life.
Myself, I have seen co-workers fight cancer and live to see another birthday. I have had 2 aunts fight breast cancer and leave this world too early. It has touched my grandparents, friends’ families, and acquaintances.
Here’s praying we all see more birthdays.
