Are You Baffled By Cancer

What do you think when you hear the word cancer? What is it? How does it develop? Am I at risk? Can it be prevented? Don’t be baffled anymore! The most important steps you can take to prevent cancer are to partner with your doctor to discuss any symptoms, know your personal risk factors, and follow through on any scheduled tests or screenings.

Beginning in July 2011, Spirit of Women hospitals across the US will host seminars that will help you take the confusion, and the fear, out of cancer. Are You Baffled by Cancer? will give women a general understanding of cancer and detail the causes, risk factors, symptoms and treatment options for the top twelve most common forms of cancer affecting Americans today, which include:

  • Lung
  • Prostate
  • Breast
  • Colorectal
  • Bladder
  • Melanoma
  • Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma
  • Kidney
  • Thyroid
  • Endometrial
  • Pancreatic
  • Leukemia

Gaining a better understanding of cancer and partnering with your doctor will help you confront cancer head-on with less fear and more confidence.
