My Cancer Story on Life Rearranged

I’ve told you about the amazing blog Life Rearranged before. My friend Jeannett had a mission to start a blog that could inspire and do something big at the same time. Life Rearranged is that mission. She has guest bloggers share their stories and chose an organization to raise money for. There is a giveaway- great stuff- and you get an entry to win for every dollar donated. So cool, right?

Well, guess what? I’m the guest blogger this week! I was honored when Jeannett wanted me to share my story with her readers. I am raising money for I’m Too Young For This- an organization support and raising funds and awareness for adolescents and young adults with cancer. You can read my post here.

A few crazy facts about young adults with cancer:

(1) Each year, nearly 70,000 young adults, aged 15-39, are diagnosed with cancer and roughly 10,000 will die due to the disease.

(2) Over the past 30 years, young adults (15-39) have seen the greatest increase in cancer incidence than any other age group.

(3) The 5-year survival rates in young adults has not improved over the past 30 years on par with other age groups.

You can find more information on my Life Rearranged post and also on the i2y website.

Guess what we are giving away? A fully custom banner by me! So, if you have been wanting to order a banner for anything, now is the time. For a few bucks, you can enter the giveaway and be helping people like me.
