2 months…that’s how long it has been since I have posted to this blog. I try not to use this blog as a personal voice, but I will this time. My world has been taken over by cancer, in these recent months and my focus has moved from searching for the obscure and interesting to watching the end of my 67 year old Father’s brave 4 year battle with stage 4 cancer.
As I sit in his room in the Palliative care wing at his hospital, I decided that maybe I should just get back at it….and so I will start with a few infographics of the mysterious and rampant disease, one that is estimated [by WHO] to take 84 million people between 2005-2015. A staggering figure.

So sorry to hear about your father Janet. My thoughts are with you and your family and yes, the disease keeps on ravaging humanity. Some day, let’s hope sooner than later, it will not be a killer but just an ailment.

I’m really sorry to hear about your father. I wish for the best for you and your family.
Don’t worry about using this as your personal voice, especially through this ordeal, afterall, it effects many, so while personal, it gets around as well.
