15.5 Million Americans Now Surviving Cancer

Survivors.jpg
   It is Thursday June 2,2016 Cancer survivors in the United States reached record numbers this year- 15.5 million- and the American Society predicts they will total more than 20 million in another decade. According to the report, nearly half of survivors are 70 and older, and 56% percent were diagnosed within the past 10 years. One-third were diagnosed less than five years ago.

  Any cancer survivor in general is involved in this event

  What is being done for this to happen are the medicines that are given to the cancer patients and including all the therapy that they get.

Reflection: Well this event does relates to me because i had a friend who had a uncle that had been diagnosed with prostate cancer. He has been having it for a while and then he past away.
