In Honor

This is to inform people about different cancers. 'Cancer' is the name for a group of diseases in which the body's cells are changed in appearance and function. Such abnormal cells can grow out of control and form a mass or 'tumor. These tumors can be benign or malignant. Unfortunately this horrible disease does not target any certain gender, race, or age. Therefore, we are all at risk of this monstrous disease. I would like to remind everyone the importance of being tested early. This can determine the outcome of your prognosis. These stories are to help anyone who might be going through something similar, giving them a reason to keep fighting.

I chose to write about 5 different lives of people affected by cancer. In doing so I would like to honor these courageous individuals on their battle to survive
