SO MANY... SO SOON


THIS MORNING WE WERE INFORMED THAT ACTOR, ALAN RICKMAN OF THE FAMOUS HARRY POTTER SAGA HAS DIED.

A FEW DAYS AGO WE WERE TOLD DAVID BOWIE HAD DIED.

WE LEARNT OF THE DEATH OF NATALIE COLE WHO DIED ON NEW YEAR'S EVE.

WHAT DO ALL OF THESE FAMOUS PEOPLE HAVE IN COMMON? THEY ALL DIED IN THEIR 60's AS A RESULT OF A BATTLE WITH CANCER!!

CELINE DION'S HUSBAND, RENE ANGELIL, AGE 73, DIED TODAY OF THROAT CANCER.


THE SAD REALITY IS THAT CANCER IS KILLING SO MANY PEOPLE EVERY DAY. IT IS 50 YEARS SINCE I LOST MY MOTHER TO THIS TERRIBLE ILLNESS AND STILL THERE HAS NOT BEEN A SCIENTIFIC DISCOVERY TO ERADICATE CANCER FROM THE FACE OF THE EARTH. HOWEVER, HAVING A COUSIN IS IS A SURVIVOR AND KNOWING THAT SHE IS GETTING THE TREATMENT ON AN ALMOST WEEKLY BASIS TO KEEP YOU CANCER AT BAY IS COMFORTING.

I PRAY FOR A BREAKTHROUGH AND FOR THIS DEADLY ILLNESS TO DISAPPEAR. HOPEFULLY ONE DAY IT WILL.
