Today is World Cancer day.
 According to the World Health Organization, cancer is now the world's second leading cause of death, after heart disease. In 2012, there were 14 million new cases of cancer and 8.2 million cancer deaths worldwide. That's one person dying every 3 seconds from cancer. But we can change that. We can bring down those numbers by working together to fight cancer on all fronts - prevention, diagnosis, treatment and care. And we can do it by increasing awareness and funds for research into this devastating disease.
