Hi Char - As Alison said, education is really important. Cervical cancer is a cancer that is easily detected in the early stages and it is also one of the most treatable cancers. A lot of what we see in the media is focused on scaring people about cancer in order to get people to donate money to causes. The reality is that more than 12 million cancer survivors today live in the US alone, and the prevention measures and treatments have advanced remarkably in recent years. As a two-time cancer survivor I'm living proof these advancements work!
