In 2016 approximately 1,685,210 cases of cancer will be diagnosed, and 595,690 people will die due to this disease. My uncle, unfortunately, was a victim of this deadly disease. My family and I witnessed the effects of this and it impacted us all strongly. I watched as my uncle underwent all the surgeries and treatments, and progressively got weaker and became fragile. The whole experience made me reflect upon myself and I desired to make a change, and help expand the research to develop a cure to end cancer.

“Lets not call cancer patients as patients, they are cancer fighters. They are brave hearts” - Vikrmn, Gura. Nowadays, you hear more and more people getting cancer(13). It is a stress that many people worry about. You worry if one of your parents will get it. You pray your children don't’ get it. It’s a constant worry. You watch television and you can get this horrible monster from microwaving your food, drinking bottled water, carrying your phone in your pocket, using deodorant, coloring your hair and much more.

You never know how essential a person is to you until they are no longer in your life. 7.6 million pure lives are lost every year due to this distressing disease. The volleyball team of Ontario High School was fortunate enough to promote awareness for various types of cancers. Our creative way to get the school and community involved is hosting a volley for a cure match and auctioning prizes off and having a bake sale. This hits home with me because my papa battled this life threatening disease for over thirty years. Thousands of dollars are raised in creative ways and donated in optimism to finding a cure to kick cancer's butt.
The European fever of colonial aspiration, as Andrea White in “Conrad and Imperialism” suggests, is a very common motivation in the mid of the nineteenth century to carve up the non-European landscapes (White, 1996: 180). It was a period of ‘high colonialism’, frantic incentives for expansion, and sharing colonial territories. (GoGwilt, 2010: 138). It was the age where the Europeans were imperialising the weak peoples to construct their Empires. It is worth mentioning that, these Empires were often represented as creation of peace. They attach the names of peace to these Empires such as ‘Pax Romana, Pax Britanica, Pax Hispanica, Pax Mongolica, and so forth. The foundations of these Empires are written by people who live in the imperial countries. In his book, The History of the Decline and Fall of Roman Empire (2000), Edward Gibbon manifests that: ‘The obedience of the Roman world was uniform voluntary and permanent [....] The vast Roman Empire was governed by absolute power under the guidance of virtue and wisdom’ (Gibbon, 2000: 30). The assumption of the Empires’ good will to dominate the subjected peoples, is recently demonstrated by Jack Conrad in his book Fantastic Reality. His assumption coincides with that of Gibbon’s, he claims that: ‘[Domination comes in] a fit of absence of mind’ (Conrad, 2013: 243). The Empires are presented as a necessity to attain stability, prosperity and order for the subjugated peoples. They used the word ‘civilisation’ instead of
Cancer is deadly, and people should do everything in their power to help find a cure. There is not a single person on this earth that has not been affected by cancer. Ghandi said, ‘be the change you want to see in your world.” Everyone should choose to “be the change” and choose to be a hero, even if it’s for someone you do not know.
