Cancer Awareness

 
Today like many others I took part in a worthy campaign for breast cancer awareness called “NoMake-upSelfies”. I like many other women took to the craze and donated to the charity. For the last few days Facebook has been swamped with girls everywhere baring there natural beauty for a good cause. I believe everyone in some way have been affected by cancer whether it male or female and it is nice for once to see social media doing something good for the world. Especially after the horrific incidents associated with the dreadful “Neknomiantions” that saw lives taken from both Ireland and the Uk. I read this morning that in the last 24hours cancer research has taken in 200K in donations and is still receiving more by the minute. When you experience someone close to you fall ill. Something inside you begins to stir. Most the time the question “Why” him/her will spring to mind. But most of all a sense of wanting to help or fix the situation is lit within all of us. That is why I was willing to support this cause and smile. It may not find a cure today or save people close to me. But maybe it will help to further research so, that someday in the future when the word “Cancer” is mentioned people will survive and a cure will exist. But for now I will still pray for those who are sick and ask God to intervene to help them through tough times and hopefully come out “Cancer Free”.
