Another February 4th and thus yet again , another WORLD CANCER DAY but this year what's new with the fight against Cancer? As the burden of cancer grows unfortunately more worrisome, in addition to all the group efforts being put in by The World Health Organisation (WHO) and partners like The Union for International Cancer Control (UICC) amongst others, individuals from every part of the world are being called upon to take personal action, no matter how small, towards reversing the current menacing cancer statistics; just in case we all might be able to achieve a cancer free world or perhaps the next generation. The theme for this year "I AM AND I WILL" creates room for all and everyone to fit in to the struggle and take action in any way possible. This article is my own little way of taking action and I believe strongly that it would go a long way in creating awareness towards what we are dealing with and what we must do....."I AM AN ADVOCATE AND I WILL SPEAK UP"!!!

* THE PREFERRED WAY FORWARD: Just because prevention is better than cure so, the less the risk of coming down with cancer, the better for us all.

It's time to make a personal commitment against cancer people....."I AM AN ....Individual, Student, Advocate, Medical Professional, Business Person, House Husband or Wife, Jobless etc...AND I WILL....Spread The Word; Reduce My Cancer Risk; Fund Research; Support Cancer Victims etc. Whatever you can do, it will be super important in the fight against cancer and together, perhaps we could make the world a better place.
