Every day, 1500 people lives are taken by cancer. It is accounted for 1 of every 4 deaths. Cancer is the second most common cause of death in the US, exceeded only by heart diseases, and if current trends continue and we don’t do anything about it, it is the leading cause of death!

For every 4 Americans, there is one diagnosed with cancer.

Cancer is identified by uncontrolled cell division and cell death caused by cumulative damage to important regulatory genes. Generally, multiple genes must be damaged for a cancer to grow and to develop the capacity to spread, also known as metastasis. Cancers that seem to run in families may be hereditary or may signify similar family environmental exposure to substances that cause cell damage such as polluted air, water, soil and to radiation. Cancer can occur in many areas of the body and behaves differently depending on its types and origin. Cancer is caused by both external factors (tobacco, chemicals, radiation and infectious organisms) and internal factors (inherited mutations, hormones, immune conditions, and mutations that occurs from metabolism). It often takes ten or more years from exposure to external factors and a detectable cancer.

I Miss Lori

I want to tell you a little story,

about a girl I met named Lori!

I met her one day in town,

I was walking and just looking around!

I met Lori and asked her on a date,

a few months later we became mates!

We married in the month of September,

it was quite beautiful I remember!

We were happy being together,

there could never be a life better!

I loved Lori very much,

and I miss her sweet and gentle touch!

We were married several years,

and one day I found her in tears!

She’d seen the Doctor earlier that day,

and he told she wouldn’t live until the month of May!

She had developed a tumor in the brain,

and it had been causing her much pain!

We thought that it was only Migraines you see,

my Lori was only thirty-three!

She was the love of my life and made me live,

to have her back there’s nothing I wouldn’t give!

Lori’s been gone now for five years,

and whenever I think of her I come to tears!

I just wanted you to know about my Lori,

and about our “Love Story”!
