February 4th is celebrated as "World Cancer Day"
World Cancer Day is an international day observed every 4 February to raise awareness about cancer, encourage its prevention, and mobilize action to address the global cancer epidemic.
So many of us may have a personal experience of our own, or a friend, or a loved one.
Take a few minutes today to learn ways to help prevent cancer -

A good day. Lunchtime walk in the sun, physio wants me to try and train as I normally do when not injured and see how it goes. That did not happen tonight as she needled the one area which always leaves me a bit tender for a while. Did finish the day with yoga and was week under budget even with the ice cream I succumbed to.

Thanks for the World Cancer Day links @deskjockey925, cancer sucks. I lost both my parents to it, it really makes you understand that line they use "passed away recently after a short illness". There are way too many people in this day and age still passing away after a short illness, yet the American food industry stuffs everything they can with crap that makes us sick and then the hospitals/big pharma that are supposed to help shake you down for every penny. It makes me so angry.3 -

Intentional pass day. Plenty of activity and upper body strength workout, but tonite was a Lunar New Year celebration with a wonderful meal. I couldn’t properly track the delicious Chinese food so I just enjoyed in moderation.3

Exercise felt really good today, but I've been extremely irritable. Not sure why. Still in the first week back eating better, maybe my body is just adjusting. Hope it goes away soon.3 -

@deskjockey925 ~ thank you for sharing this opener and important topic.
It's helpful to remind us how much we can do to fight and prevent this disease.
While I have not had a cancer diagnosis, I have been touched by many who have. And yes, it does turn your world upside down! In my younger days, cancer = immediate death, and that is SOOO not the case.
My immediate family
My Mother - Diagnosed 1997, Passed 1998
My Sister - Diagnosed 2021, given only 3 months to live , Passed 2023
My Husband - Diagnosed 2020 - Cancer Free
Pass days = 22/2 ~ bad start/grandson weekend. Ended with unplanned pizza
