The Stand Up To Cancer program is on soon and I just wanted to say that this is very personal for me.
My wife is a cancer survivor. She was diagnosed with stage II Invasive Ductal Carcinoma of the breast. May I also add that she has been cancer free for the last 2 1/2 years now. I am very grateful for this. I wrote about this awhile back. http://www.dailykos.com/...
Cancer impacts so many people now and it seems like it is occurring more frequently than it should be. I have my own theories about this but that will have to be another diary.
Stand Up To Cancer is a new initiative created to accelerate groundbreaking cancer research that will get new therapies to patients quickly and save lives. SU2C's goal is to bring together the best and the brightest in the cancer community, encouraging collaboration instead of competition. By galvanizing the entertainment industry, SU2C creates awareness and builds broad public support for this effort.
I hope people can contribute to this cause and or watch the program. Stand Up To Cancer There is also a Facebook site if you are on Facebook.
