asked me if I could do something about cancer.
I said yes. I have a friend in his similar case. Just fight.

October was breast cancer awareness month as you probably know. Because it's something that's special to me I wanted to do a photo for the month. Breast Cancer is binding. It is something that traps you and it is something hard to set yourself free from. This is something I wanted to portray in this photo.
On a side note. Has flickr sharpening gotten worse because it totally over sharpened this photo.
" I couldn't let October's Breast Cancer Awareness (but not prevention) Month come to a close without posting a satire cartoon exposing all the pinkwashing we've seen that month. You can buy everything in pink these days, from bottled water to fried chicken, alcohol and even handguns. So why not cigarettes? All these pink products claim to give some mystery percentage of "net profits" (which could be zero if the company isn't profitable) to "find a cure for cancer" (a ridiculous proposition since we already have natural cures for cancer).
It's all part of the cancer industry's brainwashing propaganda that tries to convince people that we can cure cancer by going shopping! "

This week I travelled to Rice Lake in Lynn Valley. I was a bit lost trying to find the lake and the orientation maps didn't seem to help me. As the light faded, I stumbled upon an idyllic clearing, perfect for play. Nature is beautiful and peaceful on the North Shore and I look forward to returning soon.
Studies have shown that a person's genes can cause an increased risk in breast and ovarian cancer. This infographic shows the chromosomal mutations and the risk they can pose.
According to the National Cancer Institute, studies have shown that inherited mutations in the BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes account for 5-10 percent of all breast cancers and 15 percent of all ovarian cancers. While genetic testing is encouraged only for those who have a family history of breast or ovarian cancer, education and awareness are important to early detection and treatment.
How can a better understanding of the cause of these genetic mutations help further the cause of finding a cure for cancer?

I love taking photos during the final hour of sunset aka the magic hour as the light always looks amazing. I tried something new by cloning out the mirror’s reflection in Photoshop so that it appeared to be a window through my body. It was a fun learning experience and I’m happy with the result.
To recap: On Sunday, May 8th, I completed Cycle 17 Week 1. I have Multiple Myeloma and anemia, a rare blood cancer. It is incurable, but treatable. From February to November 2013, I received Velcade chemo through weekly in-hospital injections as an outpatient. Since February 9th 2015, I have been on Pomalyst and dexamethasone chemo treatment (Pom/dex).
" Cholera, diarrhea, tuberculosis – some of the most deadly diseases to plague the human race throughout history are all preventable in some way. Cancer, perhaps the biggest stymie to modern medicine, is also preventable in most cases. This is good news depending on how you look at it." ...

"Unstable" is one of the negative traits that go under the Zodiac sign "Cancer".
I researched and interviewed people which are Cancers. I've been given an example that if a Cancer fell in love, he would either fall madly in love OR dislike the person. So, it's either black OR white. It's where grey does not exist.
The model's face was actually painted in black and white, the hallow created at the back, was to give the photo some depth and not let the face mold with the background.

I have my October blood test results and I’m pleased to report that my cancer levels are lower this month.
M Protein (g/L)
Oct = 2.3
Sept = 2.8
Aug = value missing
July = value missing
June = 1.9
May = 1.7
Apr = 2.5
Mar = 3
The M Protein is a complete and accurate measure of the cancer/myeloma in my body, it consists 100% of abnormal protein. A zero value means no cancer is detected in my blood. The Beta 2 and igG measures I’ve previously discussed, contain good and abnormal protein and therefore aren’t as accurate.
I’m maintaining a positive outlook on life!
To recap: On Sunday, October 9th, I completed Cycle 22 Week 3. I have Multiple Myeloma and anemia, a rare blood cancer. It is incurable, but treatable. From February to November 2013, I received Velcade chemo through weekly in-hospital injections as an outpatient. Since February 9th 2015, I have been on Pomalyst and dexamethasone chemo treatment (Pom/dex).

Cancer 1
Outside in the car park
The sky grey, spitting, stark.
Time it passes so slow:
20 minutes to go.
The traffic heavy on the main road,
The clouds darken, dropping their load.
Rain splatters the windscreen:
15 minutes to go.
What will she say to me?
Not too long now: wait and see.
Good? Bad? Definitive?
Absolute? Provisional? Tentative?
8 minutes to go.
I'm ready to hear my fate:
The state of my prostate.
5 minutes to go.
I face the wind and rain.
There will be no surpise or pain.
There's a history of cancer in my kin,
And a history of cancer within.
3 minutes to go.
It will not be a hammer blow.
1 minute to go:
Time no longer passes so slow.
Cancer 3
Main waiting area and
The appointment time nears.
Is this where it happens?
The confirmation of my fears?
Name called: mispronounced,
Weight taken, slightly shaking.
I’m now in waiting room C
And succumb to wanting to pee,
But I’ll hold it in and wait and see.
The nurses chattering and talking,
The corridors echo to the sound of walking,
Is there a cancer beavering away
As dark and quiet as a funeral day?
But whatever the outcome I will fight
And laugh and love and dance;
Embrace the dark and turn
That corrosive darkness into light.
Cancer 4
So now I know.
But the light still glows,
And it will burn brighter
As I determine to fight her.
Cancer 1 was written in October 2010 as I waited to hear my PSA score. It was too high. 6.9. So I was referred to a specialist. A biopsy of my prostate was suggested. Cancer 3 was written as I waited to see the consultant and hear the results of the biopsy. Cancer 4 was written as I sat in my car following hearing the results of the biopsy: that I had prostate cancer. A Gleason score of 6 and T1 tumour. 5% of the sample was "abnormal". That was in late December 2010. An early unwanted Christmas present. The picture itself was taken a few months later, as I waited to see my surgeon, when my PSA almost doubled to 11.5. it is back down to 6.9 almost year on from my intial PSA. I'm following a regime of active surveillance. Following the 11.5 PSA I was "re-staged" and opted for a transperineal biopsy. That will happen late September 2011. My aim is to go through 2011 without radical prostatectomy or radiation therapy. Almost there.
24/10/11 Perhaps I wrote too soon. My biopsy results show that my cancer is more severe than the initial biopsy results suggested. My Gleason score is now 7, with a third of the biopsy samples showing abnormal cells. Currative treatment is now needed. Which form that takes I find out on Thursday.
19/11/11 I'm now having treatment for my prostate cancer. Hormone therapy, which will last for at least 6 months, and during the second half of that treatment, I will receive radiotherapy 5 days a week.
10/12/11
The hormone therapy is kicking in:
leaving me shrivelled, drying my skin.
I'm wasted, but don't drop me in the bin.
A drug induced male menopause,
with sexless thoughts I have to change the laws
and fight my corner and my cause.
A beautiful phrase, a kind word or a sad song
and tears flow down, hard and long,
but my love keeps me positive, happy, strong.
Things aren't going smooth, unfortunately,
I need a TURP before radiotherapy
To help my flow, to ease my pee
I can't say what the consequences will be
I'm going to have to just wait and see
hoping that we can smile when I am free
as we look back drinking our green tea.
The TURP (transurethral resection of the prostate) is scheduled for 20th December 2011.
John had this brown mark for around 10 years. In the last few months it started affecting his eyesight causing things to look more blurred and his eyes to water a lot. Finally he went to the doctors and within a month they operated. This is a skin cancer called Lentigo Maligna and it can be either benign or malignant. We are now awaiting the results of the biopsy and hope that its not malignant and that his eyesight will not be permanently impaired. Already (a week after the operation) his sight is improving. The operation was done under local anaesthetic and he was able to go home straight away. If you have something like this GET IT SEEN NOW!!
The World Cancer Day is a global observance that helps raise people’s awareness of the cancer and how to prevent, detect and treat it. The world cancer day is held on February 4th of each year.

In 2000 I designed a tattoo for a friend of mine that was comprised of his astrological birth sign, Cancer, and his rising sign, which was Leo. Cancer, the crab, is seen with the glyph for the sign as part of its back colouring, reaching up to the sign of Leo, above it. The sun disc of Leo surrounds the lion but also contains a crescent moon, the ruling 'planet' for Cancer.
Done as a shoulder piece, the tattoo went from Phillippe's shoulder down almost to his elbow. It won First Prize, Medium Colour, at the 2000 Northern Ink Exposure in Toronto. The Tattoo artist was multi award winning Jamie Izumi of Tora Tattoo in Waterloo, ON, Canada.
Later that year I dropped the design into Photoshop and made an art piece out of it for my portfolio. Phillippe had a framed copy of it in his home until he died in 2008.
The original tattoo design and this art variation, are, of course, copyright and are not to be used without my expresss written permission.
Phillippe was an incredibly dedicated Madonna fan. He had one of the largest and most extensive collections of Madonna posters, picture discs and memorabilia in the world. His collection was documented and Phillippe was interviewed on television not long before he died, talking about his collection. This song is for him, as he really was a "Ray of Light".

A research team, led by Giulio Genovese, Ph.D., of the Broad Institute at MIT and Harvard in Boston, focused on precursors for blood cancers like leukemia, lymphoma and myeloma. Though innovative drug therapies and increasing access to treatments have dramatically improved blood cancer survival, blood cancer remains one of the most common forms of cancer in the United States and worldwide. In 2014, blood cancer accounted for approximately 9.4 percent of the estimated 1,665,540 new cancer cases diagnosed across the country.

October is breast cancer awareness month
Worldwide, breast cancer is the fifth most common cause of cancer death (after lung cancer, stomach cancer, liver cancer, and colon cancer). In 2005, breast cancer caused 502,000 deaths (7% of cancer deaths; almost 1% of all deaths) worldwide. Among women worldwide, breast cancer is the most common cause of cancer death.
In the United States, breast cancer is the third most common cause of cancer death (after lung cancer and colon cancer). In 2007, breast cancer is expected to cause 40,910 deaths (7% of cancer deaths; almost 2% of all deaths) in the U.S. Among women in the U.S., breast cancer is the most common cancer and the second- most common cause of cancer death (after lung cancer). Women in the U.S. have a 1 in 8 lifetime chance of developing invasive breast cancer and a 1 in 33 chance of breast cancer causing their death. A U.S. study conducted in 2005 by the Society for Women's Health Research indicated that breast cancer remains the most feared disease, even though heart disease is a much more common cause of death among women.
The number of cases has significantly increased since the 1970s, a phenomenon partly blamed on modern lifestyles in the Western world. Because the breast is composed of identical tissues in males and females, breast cancer also occurs in males, though it is less common.
The United States Congress designated January as Cervical Health Awareness Month.
