Thank you for your continued commitment to your American Cancer Society and congratulations on your selection as a Celebration on the Hill 2006 Legislative Ambassador. On September 19-20, 2006, your voice will join with thousands of other voices in the halls of Congress in Washington, D.C. to convince our lawmakers to make cancer a national priority. And WE WILL BE HEARD!

"In
addition to providing real hope for anyone diagnosed with cancer,
Hyman Fead offers valuable insight into what is required from family,
friends and other loved ones. More importantly, she deftly avoids
didacticism, leading by example with a writing style that is
heartening and effective."

"In 2002, my husband and I were invited on a trip to Greece by friends
of ours, celebrating their anniversary and birthday. During this trip,
I had funny little stabbing pains and I thought the Greek food wasn't
agreeing with me. It didn't stop our fun but I told my
husband I'd get checked out when I got home."

"When you have received your cancer diagnosis, please do not think that is the end. That is only the beginning.
This is when you call in the troops to go to work for you. Ask them to go on the Internet and find out everything they can about your particular kind of cancer.
There are new drugs and experimental treatments coming out from around the world every day."
