The War against cancer was launched in Victoria in the 1930's. Isn't it time we had less cancer instead of more, and better survival rates for those unfortunate enough to have this disease?
At this site, our hope is to gradually change the understanding of Australians, so that we can take informed actions to protect and improve our health. We might pride ourselves on our long life expectancy, but a recent review stated that our health expectancy is only 54 years. After that, the average person is on two medications for the rest of his life, due to poor health.
Giving a gift to a cancer patient:
Christmas or birthdays can be a difficult time for all involved, when cancer is threatening. Keep in mind that the best gift is your company or friendship. If you also wish to give a gift you can wrap up and hand over, here are some ideas that might help.
1 in 3, Real Hope for Cancer, is available on this page. This book could well deliver an extra gift of hope; giving plenty of ideas to help your loved one along the path towards improved health.
If you don't like that idea, the double page of gift ideas at the back of the book can assist you in choosing a meaningful gift...
OK, I won't tease; here are a few tips:
- Toxin free personal care products
- A basket of fresh berries - blueberries, raspberries
- Tickets (and transport) to a good show
