Together we can make a world where cancer no longer means living with fear, without hope, or worse.

The word 'cancer' carries with it enormous fear, fear for the future, fear for family.

My biggest fear in life is losing the people I love, and the thing with cancer is that it seems that you can't really control it.

I try hope that in the end, we will live in a cancer-free world. We want to live disease-free lives.

Although the elusive 'cure' may be a distant dream, understanding the true nature of cancer will enable it to be better controlled and less menacing.

We all live in fear of cancer, but to be told you have skin cancer was terrifying.

You hear the word 'cancer,' it scares you. You think of death.

Our fears are an amazing gift of the imagination... a way of glimpsing what might be the future when there's still time to influence how that future will play out.

Well, the first thing that clued me in to the fact that there was something really scary about breast cancer, way beyond the thought of dying, was coming across an ad in the newspaper for pink breast cancer teddy bears. I am not that afraid of dying, but I am terrified of dying with a pink teddy bear under my arm.

I had a cancer scare in the early '90s, and for a few months, I wondered if I would make it.
