Tomorrow is the 4th of February and also world cancer day. This is a post I found on facebook:

We have all lost family,friends,or loved ones........Today is the International Day against cancer. In memory of those who lost the battle against Cancer and for all those who fought and won or continue to fight to win. 93% of you will not copy and paste this text: I am proud to be part of the 7% who will

I hope its okay to post this here.

I have lost loved ones to cancer and I wanted to show respect and support for research into a cure for cancer...

My grandpa also died of cancer, so did my grandma and my uncle. :(

I think my uncle died before i got born, my grandma died when i was 5, and my grandpa died a few months ago. :(

Sorry for you both :(

My Gran died of cancer in March 2007, but it is easier to cope after a while...

The best thing you can do to help is join in with events to do with cancer research, etc. and donate.

Just noticed this:
You posted this on march 3rd.
It says tomorrow, is the 4th of february.

Today is march 3rd, tomorrow is march 4th, not february 4th....

If I can remember, my grand father on my dad's side had skin cancer, yet died of a stroke...
My grandmother has leukemia, so, I have a higher chance of getting that.

Oh, and when in kindergarden, I had a scist, which, from what I learned, is the beginning stages of a tumor, before it can be considered a tumor.

It was in my stomach, and the operation they did, well, to remove it, and stop it from growing back, they had to remove my gall bladder.

The pain I felt in my stomach every day hurt so badly, it was just so painful, it felt like I was dying.
Funny thing, I was afraid of surgery, and I learned that if it wasn't removed asap, the scist would have killed me.

Currently I have a large scar across my belly, a few centimeters above my belly button.

I got to see pictures of it, it looked a bit like coral, or a futuristic city, and it branched off in certain places, with many spheres in several places.

The weirdest part was, they said they would have to destroy the scist, I don't know why they'd have to destroy it.
I personally think it would be cool to hold the scist inside a tiny jar, preserving it, yet in a way that it could still grow.
It would be awesome, just to see it up close!
I hear kids who get their tonsils removed have a choice of keeping their tonsils, via preservation in a jar.

It's much more likely that I'm able to get skin cancer and leukemia thanks to my dad's side of the family....

EDIT: It's spelled Cyst.
Oh, and this is the wikipedia entry (part of it):

"A cyst is a closed sac, having a distinct membrane and division on the nearby tissue. It may contain air, fluids, or semi-solid material. A collection of pus is called an abscess, not a cyst. Once formed, a cyst could go away on its own or may have to be removed through surgery."

Strangely, I can't find the type I had.
