Musicians Help Raise Awareness about America’s Number Two Cancer Killer
Submitted by F. Daniel Kent on Mon, 03/23/2009 - 2:00amThe music industry has joined forces with the Colon Cancer Alliance (CCA) to help raise awareness of colorectal cancer, a disease that kills as many as breast cancer and AIDS combined. One out of 18 Americans will be diagnosed with the disease and most will be diagnosed at the later stages when treatments are less effective. Yet colorectal cancer is highly preventable, and easily treatable if people screen for the disease.
