Cancer

I got an email from a close friend back home telling me that one of our classmates in college passed away. I was in shocked of the news because she was so young. Apparently, she died of breast cancer. Breast cancer is the leading cause of death among women here in the United States and in other parts of the world. My gynecologist had been telling me to take vitamin E and be mindful with the changes of my body. Most Asians get them at some point of their lives. He knows because he’s wife is a Filipina and some of his in-laws has and had breast cancer. It is very scary, and I hope time will come that they will be able to find cure so nobody had to suffer. Another cancer that is very rampant is the Mesothelioma cancer. Just like any other cancer, it is very fatal. A lot of people doesn't know anything about it and learning about this kind of cancer will go a long way.
