Sept 25,2011... I lost my Uncle Mike to his 9 year battle with brain cancer.... you never see that being fundraised eh... Dont get me wrong, cancer is a serious thing, but always breast cancer this and that, pink ribbon here and there... 32million just for breast cancer that one weekend.... but why should it be more important than any other cancer research? I mean I get the logistics of it all and previlence of the disease in our world.... but what about the rest??
Just because brain cancer isnt a major cancer, doesnt mean that people should have to suffer through its debilitating affects! It made me angry as october was breast cancer month, that they made such a huge deal, yet all other cancers go by the wayside.... so POOF
The Relay for Life is a 12 hour relay, to raise money for ALL cancers! YAY... so this is my way to honor my Uncle Mike, to continue his fight by allowing others to continue theirs!
