My perspective -- as a cancer survivor
I am under 60 (by only a few years).
My mother was taken by cancer. Her mother was taken by cancer. A few generations prior were taken by cancer. All female deaths. I survived. And have been here since my diagnosis in 1998. I don't live in fear of this virus. Go figure. GB |

Way to kick the big C's butt!
Show it who's the boss and keep it going. |

I survived cancer in 2016 at age 60 and I do fear the virus, I have been home for the last 5 weeks. Thankfully I have my daughter to do my shopping.

I am very high risk I had throat cancer and I am a neck breather so I breathe directly in to my lungs and also have copd. Yardwork keeps me sane, glad to be alive.
