Doing something tangible – walking, “flocking,” working as a team, fundraising, pooling resources to fund the prevention, better treatment, and cure for cancer – creates an atmosphere of comradeship and effectiveness in the face of an ominous and life-threatening disease.

I would like to comment on the pertinent editorial last week about a collective failure to focus on the important aspects of the various issues that are confronting us.
