The busy world of cancer

Hellooooo!

Well first let me appologize profusely for my lack of posts. I’ve been doing endless work in terms of coming up with new blog posts, actual employment, and getting ready for tomorrow’s Fight Cancer Festival.  Btw, I highly suggest you come to the festival tomorrow. Ive have punched out hundreds of teal ribbons with a hole puncher, don’t let my work be in vain, AND COME OUT TO SUPPORT AN AMAAAAAAAAAAAZING cause.

I wanted to give you an idea of what I have coming up for you.

1. Cancer Schmancer.  I had no idea that Fran Drescher was up to something amazing!  I knew she had cancer but was completely unaware that it was uterine cancer. She published Cancer Schamncer about 5 years ago, and now she is on a mission to make sure all gynecological cancers are diagnosed in Stage I when they are most treatable.  Its a pretty amazing page stocked with information.  I’ve added her link to my side bar o’ links.

2. Funky Winkerbean.  Tom Baituk has written one of his main characters, Lisa out of the strip. She passed away from Breast Cancer about a week or two ago. Seems it has caused a rif in the comic strip reading community. Should Lisa have been written out and acknowledging that people do indeed die from cancer? Or should Baituk have taken a more positive route and saved Lisa’s life?

3. Slate.com. A smart and witty news site has posted 2 blurbs on cervical cancer. Does gardasil promote promiscuity? and The divorce rates of gynecological cancer patients. 

 I know, I know, I’m slow, but I’m trying to deliver quality not quantity. I absolutely promise I will have a post up asap including pictures and a round up of THE FIGHT CANCER FESTIVAL.
