Cancer is a dirty word but these stunning cancer-related infographics shed some light on a global killer.
Earlier this year, my mom was diagnosed with Pancreatic Cancer. It’s the same kind that took Patrick Swayze’s life and is one of the worst types of cancers. Chances are, you too know someone who has battled some kind of cancer. Because this hit so close to home, I’ve spent a lot of time reading about cancer and I came across a lot of stunning visuals.
