Welcome to The Cancer Show (hint: you're already here...)

We’d like to welcome you to The Cancer Show!

But we can’t. Because you’ve been watching it for a long time already. As a matter of fact, you’ve been in the Show forever – ever since you first chose the nail polish with the pink ribbon on the package over maybe the one you wanted, or signed up to walk/ride/bike/skip for cancer. Ever since you did anything for “The Cure”.

The way most of us operate around the subject of cancer if we don’t have it is from a defensive crouch of prevention, and if not then – well, perhaps by the time we get sick “The Cure” will have gotten it’s fat ass off the bus in time to save us.

We here at The Cancer Show don’t much believe in “The Cure”. Not that we don’t all wish it existed. But if all it took for it to materialize was the total single minded dedication of over a hundred charities, over 30 billion dollars, and round the clock medical research all done in the name of unearthing “The Cure” then…we’d already have it.

Instead, we believe it’s time we get real. There’s a lot of good we can do to prevent cancer before it happens. Cuz if you don’t get cancer, you don’t have to wish for a cure. And especially in our country’s current state, considering the price of the few new cancer drugs we’ve been able to produce in the recent past, there is no reason to believe we’d even be able to afford the drug for all the afflicted.
This site is dedicated to witnessing all the good, bad and indifferent that is done in the name of those for whom cancer is no longer an abstraction, but a hard unpleasant reality.
