There will come a time throughout this Blogathon where people will start questioning the information I'm putting out. For the record I'd like to say that no, it's not a bunch of information I cobbled out from wikipedia or cancer sites all around. Everything I write here comes straight off the textbooks and notes that I study with regarding cancer cytopathology.

Why? Because that's part of subjects I take studying Medical Science Pathology. What I offer you is the truth. Nothing fibbed. Nothing ulterior. The information that I write here is to inform the public regarding what cancer really is and dispell the misconceptions the general public has about cancer. What you do with that knowledge is entirely up to you.

But maybe it's time to start reading and understanding with an open critical mind rather than a closed one.

This year Footsteps in the Mirror will be blogging to raise money for the Association for International Cancer Research which is a non-profit organisation that helps fund cancer research throughout the world. If you're willing to help, you can sign up on the Blogathon website and pledge your amount right here. Help make a difference, no matter how small it may be.
