Colon Support

I would like to give out donations as favors at my wedidng, and since my father died of colon cancer I would like to find a charity that supports this cause.

There are many breast cancer charities, but not many for other specialties. Please provide sourcing if you can so I can verify that information is correct!

Anne Murray Charity Golf Classic www.coloncancercanada.ca held in May 2010 in support of Colon Cancer Canada. Canadian icon, singer songwriter ...

Im sure the dad would appreciate company ...and i wanted to make some meals but wasnt sure the best food for someone with colon cancer I know he has a hard time going to the bathroom....any thoughts?

Offer to help in any way possible. As far as food is concerned, ask what kind of food he's eating. He is dying.
Having company, doing little errands, cleaning house, etc. all sounds like great ideas.

i think its cuz of that fact its women vs men! and people feel like women will need more help

No it's nothing to do with gender. Where did you get the idea that colon cancer is a 'male' cancer? In the UK colon cancer is the third most common cancer in men, and the SECOND most common cancer in women. I'd be surprised if the statistics are different in the US.

I agree that awareness needs to be raised about other cancers too.and while I hate 'competitive illness' I can see why there is resentment about an imbalance in awareness raising and fund raising.

BUT...the reason breast cancer is so high profile is simple - sheer hard work. Breast cancer awareness campaigns and BC Awareness Month started as a campaign by ordinary women, many of them with cancer, to raise awareness so that people knew the symptoms, examined themselves regularly, attended their routine mammograms etc. Enthusiastic participation and hard work by women made it grow into something nationally, then internationally, recognised (and then big business cashed in). Any group of people can start such an awareness campaign for any illness.

There are other cancer awareness months, ribbons etc; but no cancer campaign has had the sheer hard work put into it that breast cancer awareness has.

If colon cancer awareness is a cause close to your heart (good for you if it is) there is nothing to stop you and a few friends starting a campaign in the same way those few women who started the whole breast cancer awareness campaign did. You'll have to be as dedicated as they were and work as hard as they did though.

Apparently you can "Flush up to 20 lbs from your Colon & Enjoy a Flatter Tummy". Will this work even though I'm pregnant?

If I do it will it flush away my baby? Where will the baby live if this happens?

The colon bone is connected to the tummy bone? I did not know that.

I have heard frustrated parents refer to their kids as "little shi...ts." Maybe yours will be a big one. You can get a bumper sticker that says "My shi...t can beat up your little shi...t."

I f any one knows , I would be grateful to find out.

I haven't heard a peep from him in years. I think after the BushCo fiasco, he's staying out of the public eye, as well he should. The fact he put loyalty to the administration over loyalty to country is a stain on his reputation. They used him shamelessly and he must know it.
