This is a slice of a mastectomy specimen (surgical removal of a breast) showing a typical breast cancer (here, an invasive ductal carcinoma).
The appearance of this tumour is classical. I used it to illustrate the (probable) origin of the name "cancer" in the Wikipedia page for this disease: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cancer
I took this picture for my dear friend Barney who is fighting bone marrow cancer. I wanted to show him that people care and are rooting for him. Please help me show support in the fight against cancer. Barney is currently undergoing a bone marrow transplant - a particularly stressful process, including both chemotherapy and radiation therapy, that requires considerable BRAVERY to endure.
This bracelet is a symbol of the Aplastic Anemia & MDS International Foundation, which is the oldest and largest patient advocate and support organization for bone marrow diseases, providing life-saving hope, knowledge, and support to hundreds of thousands of patients and their families around the world.
I hereby declare this photo to be in the Public Domain. Please upload this photo to your own photo stream to show your support for the thousands of persons who have bone marrow diseases and tag it with BRAVERY.
Oh, yeah - I have just been diagnosed with Myelodisplasia myself. With luck, I will NOT have to undergo bone marrow transplant myself.
If you are able to donate to this worthy organization, I urge you to do so. I am not connected with it in any way.

No colors were changed in this photo. The glove was actually pink and when I showed my wife the photo she said "wow that would be a great breast cancer awareness photo". So here is how it turned out.

Last week I had my quarterly appointment with my Hematologist. I was in a good mood as I had seen my blood test results the week before, showing my cancer levels continuing to drop. He said he was very happy with my overall health as I’m responding very well to my chemo treatment. I received a new requisition form for bloodwork for the next 2 years and I only have to have my big monthly (e.g. Week 43, Week 47) blood test now, which shows my cancer levels + overall response to treatment.
The small monthly blood test (e.g. Week 45), which only shows my overall response to treatment has been cancelled, as tests every 2 weeks are excessive, when the results aren’t likely to show problems. I took this photo this morning as it was heavily raining. I was fortunate to find a covered spot to place my camera so it wouldn’t get wet.
To recap: I have multiple myeloma and anemia, a rare cancer of the blood plasma. It is treatable, but incurable. On Sunday, January 10th I completed Cycle 12 Week 4 of my four week treatment cycle. I have 21 days on (Pomalyst chemo pill) and then 7 days off. In addition, I take dexamethasone, an oral steroid, every Monday.

World Cancer Day takes place every year on 4 February and is the single initiative under which the Union for International Cancer Control (UICC), its members, partners and the entire world can unite together in the fight against the global cancer epidemic.
Under the tagline ‘Not beyond us’, World Cancer Day 2015 will take a positive and proactive approach to the fight against cancer, highlighting that solutions do exist across the continuum of cancer, and that they are within our reach.
The campaign explores how we can implement what we already know in the areas of prevention, early detection, treatment and care, and in turn, open up to the exciting prospect that we can impact the global cancer burden – for the better.
World Cancer Day 2015 is articulated around four key areas of focus:
* Choosing healthy lives
* Delivering early detection
* Achieving treatment for all
* Maximising quality of life

Patrick Swayze's death came as a shock to many people. But not to his own cancer doctor: they know that the five-year survival rates of people being treated with chemotherapy for pancreatic cancer are virtually zero. And Swayze was only the latest in a long list of celebrities dying after being treated with chemotherapy and other toxic forms of western medicine...
... The reason so many celebrities are harmed or killed by the cancer industry is quite simple: the cancer industry is a for-profit business. It makes money by treating cancer, not by curing or preventing cancer...

My sister Jeannette (middle) has breast cancer for ten years now and she is currently undergoing her fourth chemotherapy. She has had to struggle for years to except her imminent death and loss of hair.
Lately she wants to show women who have the same doubts that it doesn't have to be a disaster to loose your hair. It's not something she has asked for,but at the same time it gives her a good feeling to not have to hide the results of a traumatic illness.
See more images of her and other women on www.kaalstaanwesterk.nl
The other women on this image are perfectly healthy. They shaved their heads out of solidarity.

" Em Marte o cancer de mama já não mata mais ninguem. As marcianas aprenderam a ficar com os olhos bem abertos (todos os três)"
" Like on Earth, breast cancer is the most common cancer in martians women, but it can be successfully treated. Screening tests can find cancer early, when it’s most treatable.
The martians female often say: keep your eyes peeled (the three eyes)."
