2008-05-31 23:07:00 Touching the lives of every family, the insidiousness of cancer has no regard for age, gender, race, religion, fame, or fortune. It is a leading cause of death.

Katie's fundraising has amounted to approximately $30 million, which paid for NCCRA grants for research and in part paid for the Jay Monahan Center...

2008-04-10 15:44:00 Colon cancer is becoming more common. There will be around 125,000 new cases diagnosed in America this year. Many of these cases are in people more than 50 years old and are random. A small percentage, approximately 10%, however are not random, they have an inherited form of colon cancer. This could be caused by four different hereditary conditions, hereditary non-polyposis colon cancer, familial adenomatous polyposis, juvenile polyposis (this may also be nonhereditary) and Peutz-Jegher’s syndrome.Colon cancer is caused by damage to the genes in your colon cells. These damages can cause the cells to grow unrestricted. This unrestricted growth becomes a polyp, which will become cancerous if it’s not removed.

But this time she faces a far more bigger battle, a battle for her life as she fights against colon cancer.So what is colon cancer? To know that we must first define what cancer is.In a normal body function, rapid division and multiplication of cells are needed to regenerate and heal the body. But there are times when the growth is uncontrollable and spreads (metastasizes) into other parts of the organs where it continue to divides and replaces normally funct...
