EIREGO---What did you think of the show? I had a lump in my throat the whole time. le0pard13---Oh, I don't deserve any thanks. The people doing the hard work do. Poncho---I'm so glad your grandfather is okay. And I agree about the volunteering. Shell---Yes, alternative medicines can be effective. I think more research should be done so they can be officially approved and patients can have more options. Lauren---Thank YOU for all the time and energy you put in to help make the show a success!

thank you for this beautiful post! it’s really moving to see everyone together to help support research that I believe will one day defeat this terrible disease. 🙂 Thanks PCN!

You’re wonderful to promote this, PCN. I hope it does much to raise both awareness and research funding, and I hope a good chunk of that funding goes to complementary medicines as well, which hold great promise.

They’re airing it live ‘ere! And on 3 channels on cable! Yay!

I, as Eirego, haven’t met anyone -close- who lost the battle to cancer. But my grandpa recently underwent surgery to remove a tumor (and thankfully came out all right).

I’m all in for donating. But I’m also in for volunteer work, and I think that’s also what’s most needed in many cases.

Anyway, thanks for promoting this, PCN.

I have been lucky (knocking LOUDLY on wood) I don’t know anyone I was really close to who lost a battle with the big C, only ones who seemed to have staved it off (again, knocking on wood LOUDLY). But I have seen what it has done to people who have watched a loved one go through it and going through what they went through remains one of my worst nightmares. I give whenever I can to the cause. I will be tuning in tonight.
