Cancer Prevention (Or Why Me?)

I have a feeling I am bit cynical these days. This morning I found a post by Dana Farber's Insight blog on cancer prevention tips, which caught my cynical eye.
I was 19 when I was first diagnosed with cancer. Okay, I admit to smoking some by then but I wasn't much of a drinker until I got to college (!!). I was pretty active. I was young. Any bad habits didn't have much time to turn into a cancer, or so I think. 

Then by my second diagnosis, 26 years later, I might have had a few more bad habits but I was pretty active and got check ups, wore sun screen and in good shape. 

This is my family history of cancer: one grandfather got prostate cancer, the other one got gall bladder cancer, and one of my mother's cousins had breast cancer in the 1970s and is fine. (Considering my mother had forty something cousins, that's not a bad record.) 

So what happened? Why me? Why was I the one to be diagnosed with cancer? Twice? 

As for all my other ailments, my mother has had a bad back for years and also has rheumatoid arthritis. No one else has anything like I have. My father, in his late 80's, has been known to call me and ask questions about upcoming medical procedures because I have had way more than him. I ask again, why me? I am a bit cranky about this. Still. I mean why did I end up with this medical history? 

Do you see what I am saying? How did I end up with my medical history when I am surrounded by a family of healthy people? 

Its very frustrating when you follow the rules and still end up with all the medical crap. And I really don't understand what I can do to prevent more cancer - once you have a cancer diagnosis, your risk for future cancers greatly increases. Grrr.

Good day to you all.. I'm here to share my experience to everybody all around the world because I know that someone out there needs this today. I've been with my girlfriend for 3 years and everything was fine with us that we don't have to fight or quarrel for anything . My girlfriend got a new job and after 2 months of her new job, I noticed some changes in her. Few weeks before my birthday, my girlfriend broke up with me for another man. I never expected such from her. I was in severe pain and needed help urgently. I searched for help online and found Lord Zakuza who is a spell caster. I told him everything I was going through and he understood me well. He told me that he will prepare a love spell for me that will get my girlfriend back within 48 hours and he explained to me how it was going to be done and I agreed. He prepared the love spell for me and my girlfriend returned back to me begging me for forgiveness within 48 hours. I was shocked and happy and I accepted her back.. We are back together and everything is going fine. I want to thank Lord Zakuza for his help by sharing this testimony online for other people to find help too in any area of their lives. Get in touch with him with the below details. For he's good at what he does.

I was diagnosed of herpes 3 years, and ever since then i have been taking treatment to prevent outbreaks, burning and blisters, but there was no improvement until i came across testimonies of Dr. VOODOO on how he has been curing different people from different diseases all over the world, then i contacted him. After our conversation he sent me the medicine which i took according to his instructions for up to 2 weeks. After completing the medication i went back to my doctor for another test and the virus was all gone and i was completely cured, since then i have not had any signs of outbreak. I'm so filled with joy. With herbal medication Herpes Virus is 100% curable. I refer Dr VOODOO to everyone out there with the virus Email: voodoospelltemple66@gmail.com Add Dr voodoo on whatsApp +2348140120719
