A big thank you to Blythe and Bryan and Katie for airing the show on Cancer - especially for bringing attention to Oral Cancer and the effects it has on its victims and their families. You shed light on information that is little known to so many people, and I'm sure will bring much needed awareness that will save many lives. As a caregiver, I was very touched by the heartfelt caring that came through for all caregivers and their families. I found the Oral Cancer Foundation after my son's surgery and when he had just started Radiation Tx. I was a basket case of emotions and worry but the care, the compassion and accurate information we received from this forum like no other, is what helped my son (and me) to survive. I am grateful more than words can say for the generous support that The Bruce Paltrow Fund has provided for The Oral Cancer Foundation and for all who come here.
