Thanksgiving is a time to reflect on those things for which we give thanks. I would like to express my thanks for all of the incredibly talented cancer researchers and health care professionals who are making life better for those with cancer, their families and those at risk. I also give thanks for our wonderful volunteers all over the country who are trying to help us alleviate the cancer burden through their selfless efforts. Lawmakers and government leaders who are taking courageous actions to help alleviate this risk and suffering richly deserve our thanks as well. I wish all of you a blessed Thanksgiving!
Even as Breast Cancer Awareness Month comes to a close, ACS CAN will keep working year-round, across the country and with both state and federal lawmakers, to advance the public policies we know will reduce the burden of breast cancer.
