I lost my mother to cancer. I lost my father-in-law to cancer. I have lost friends to cancer. I wear a Livestrong bracelet (www.laf.org) every day and have for over four years. I had one person tell me that it was “unprofessional” to wear the bracelet into business presentations. I told him, “I’m sorry you feel that way. I’m wearing it.”

My second book is a fictional novel that doubles as a book about leadership and hope and is about a terminaly ill cancer patient (pancreatic cancer). The best review I have gotten on the book was, ironically, from a dying cancer patient who said it was “the most powerful 105 pages he had ever read.” If I never get another favorable review, i really don’t care. that one made the effort to write it worthwhile . You can check the book (Dad’s Last Letter) out at http://www.dadslastletter.com.

Life is short. Each of us has a leadership role to play in this life…Livestrong.

After reading this article i thought of giving a comment about cancer and to share it with other readers. Cancer is a class of diseases or disorders characterized by uncontrolled division of cells and the ability of these cells to invade other tissues, either by direct growth into adjacent tissue through invasion or by implantation into distant sites by metastasis. Cancer occurs either by the implantation into isolated sites by metastasis or by the direct growth into contiguous tissue through invasion.
