National Cancer Survivor's Day is the largest cancer survivor event in the world. This year will be the twenty-second annual observance which celebrates life worldwide. The intention is to demonstrate that life after a cancer diagnosis can be productive and meaningful. It is hoped that individuals diagnosed with cancer will realize that surviving cancer is greatly influenced by a positive attitude and enjoying every present moment. Dealing with cancer requires strength and courage and the assistance of family, friends and health care professionals. It is estimated by the National Cancer Survivor Day Foundation that approximately 12 million Americans are now living with and beyond a diagnosis of cancer. Raising awareness about cancer is critical, because many forms of cancer can be prevented and cured if detected early.
Treating cancer has improved greatly, resulting in longer survival. Nevertheless, physical, emotional and financial difficulties can result from this disease. Accessing cancer specialists and treatment can be a challenge. It is hoped that raising awareness will help improve the quality of life for cancer survivors.
