Dear cancer,

 

You are scum. You serve no positive purpose in the world. You hurt too many people. You end the lives of too many people. No one should have to feel the pain that you cause their bodies to endure. I truly hate you. You have affected my loved ones and I refuse to accept that.

 

I am only one person and I am not skilled enough to invent the cure that will demolish you. I can however raise the money that funds the research that ultimately will lead to your elimination. I will raise money that helps caregivers of cancer patients. I will raise money that provides aid to cancer patients to receive their treatments. I might not live to see your end, but while I live, I will watch the number of deaths decrease while the number of birthdays celebrated increase.

 

Goodbye cancer. There’s no room for you in our world.

 

Kristin
