Earlier this week a web site was launched called Seventyk.org .
The mission of the site is to raise awareness for cancer patients and an introduction to our ’Cancer Patients Bill of Rights’. As of today (5 days already) we have reached 1000 signatures. Now it’s off to the races to see if we can hit 10,000 in one month! I’m sure we’ll get there.
I am very excited and proud to be a part of what Matthew Zachary, Dr. Leonard Sender and friends are doing with the Young Adults Leadership Council and ’I’m Too Young For This!’ I am also very proud of being a part of helping to create the first ever Cancer Patients Bill of Rights. What ever small part it was, it was very gratifying.
Please take the time to stop by http://www.Seventyk.org and follow me by signing the petition. This is a passionate subject for me and I hope that you can see the importance of these critical issues.
Feel free to spread the word. The more awareness we can bring to this the faster we can get this bill the attention it deserves!
Importance of the Bill (From the seventyk.org website)
There are approximately 70,000 people aged 15-39 diagnosed with cancer every year. For over two decades there has been little or no improvement in survival for this age group. By signing this bill, you are supporting the Adolescent and Young Adult Cancer Bill of Rights to be established as a standard for care to meet the needs of this underserved population.
