Funny Video Raises Awareness For Testicular Cancer
Testicular cancer is technically a men's issue, but it affects us all when it affects the men we love, because a diagnosis can affect the entire family. For this reason, I love this video which is raising awareness, and doing it in such a fun and real way too. If you're a woman reading this, feel free to share to the men in your life, and remind them to go for screening too. Men may be procrastinators, but they do listen to the women they love.

Could Antibiotics Cure Cancer? 8-Year-Old's Suggestion Turns Out To Be True
Camilla Lisanti was asked how she would cure cancer, and the eight-year-old suggested using antibiotics, an idea which has turned out to have a lot of merit. Camilla was asked the question by her parents, a husband-wife cancer research team.
They were sceptical at first but went ahead to test out her theory in their Manchester University lab. To their surprise, several cheap and widely-used antibiotics killed the most dangerous cancer cells, including seven of the most common cancers – including breast, prostate, lung and hard-to-treat brain tumours.

Patient With Terminal Cancer Marries His College Sweetheart [Photos]
Christopher Robinson and Terry Torres met at college in upstate New York four years ago and fell in love. They have been together ever since and have a son together. In a sad turn of events, Robinson was diagnosed with a rare form of renal cancer last August and was given a few months to live.
A few weeks ago, he was checked into a hospice to await his final moments. But Robinson wanted to fulfill a promise to marry his college sweetheart before that time comes. The Menorah Center for Rehabilitation and Nursing Care [MJHS] hospice helped the couple organize their wedding and they shared the beautiful and moving pictures on their Facebook page.
