Grandma Cancer Persuasive Speech

Sorry but this one has been proven - and educators in the field have agreed with me when I have asked about it at the local hospitals and breast cancer awareness talks. I don't remember the numbers - but in general if you take all women as a group - having your first child before 30 and over the course of childbearing - nursing kids (I forget how many) to age 1 reduces cancer by 30% But if you take the subset of people with a family history - the reduction is like 60 or 70% of course that does no t mean ZERO! Some of those people will still get it - but it is a huge reduction in risk! Of course not every person who has no children or later children will get breast cancer - that's just ridiculous! It is a real reduction in risk - it is proven

In 2005 my grandmother was diagnosed with cancer, just like Gus, but for her it was for the first time, not a recurrence. When my grandmother had breast cancer, had was 61 years-old. She started to think she had cancer when she saw a weird lump on her skin. Worried, she hurried to her doctor and asked her doctor about it. Her doctor performed a biopsy, a test that determines whether her skin on her breast had cancerous cells, on a section of her skin where she suspected cancer. The test came back positive and she had breast cancer. In the following months her body was bombarded by multiple rounds of chemotherapy every week. During chemotherapy she began to act just like Gus did when he had

Introduction Breast cancer is the most common type of cancer in the UK. In 2011, just under 50,000 women were diagnosed with invasive breast cancer.

I always thought that if the ill person went to the doctor they would be back to normal the next day, but that’s not the case. For some people it took several days, weeks, months, and even years to conquer an illness but as a child I never could understand that. I don’t know how many times I’ve asked my mom or dad how come the doctors don’t get together and make a “miracle” drug that could heal anything and everything. It wasn’t until the age of 15 when my grandmother was diagnosed with breast cancer that I understood why it took so long for others to heal and the process that they had to endure in order to be healthy again. Shortly after my grandmother’s diagnosis, I started looking into what it would take to get a drug that would cure cancer through the approval process on the shelf to save some many others just like my grandmother. But I kept running into a dead end. Everything seemed to keep pointing towards chemotherapy and radiation. Although I wanted something to heal my grandmother fast, chemotherapy and radiation was the only solution if I had wish to see her watch me graduate high school.
