Ms Hamel,

 

After reading your questions I found it nice to know that there are others that share the same concerns and views.  I agree with all of your questions but mostly with the questions dealling with Federal Funding for Cancer Research and putting the research of cancer on the front burner.  There are many great organizations out there funding their own research but if we can obtain a larger Federal backing we would be able to put the research and development of a cure into the next gear.  Great questions and I can't wait for the responses.

As always, you are so right on, PJ.  Great questions and I love how you explain why the questions are important.  I don't think you have to be a survivor to "get it."  I can't wait for hte Forum to see how many of the candidates "get it."
