Hello.... is anyone there?

Hello.... is anyone there?

Did you know that....

In Australia, EVERY HOUR a young adult aged between 15 and 44 years is diagnosed with cancer?

That the cancer survival rates of young adults HAVE NOT IMPROVED BY MORE THAN 4% IN THE PAST 20 YEARS - yet children and the elderly survival rates have improved by an average of 30% over the past 30 years?

That YOUNG ADULTS (aged between 18 and 40 years) are the fastest growing cancer demographic among the 10 million new cancer diagnosis's each year world wide?

And that cancer is THE LEADING DISEASE KILLER for the young adult aged 25 to 44 years? in Australia?

who am I?
