Cancer Survivors Day 2023 is to honour and glorify those who challenged the utmost dread of ailments and succeeded to live a happy life.
Cancer is the life-threatening uncontrolled rapid growth of human cells throughout the body.
A cancer survivor is one with a past of cancer from the diagnosis to the whole life. Every year millions of people get diagnosed with cancer, and many people die of it. But the good part is, that many people thrive with it. That’s an indication of a high survival rate.
National Cancer Survivors Day Foundation encourages survivors by promoting their quality of life and sharing information with hospitals, medical institutions, and cancer support teams. This organization focuses on survivors’ life, new cases, families concerned, and social outreach. You can take the initiative by visiting their site and helping in whatever way possible.
