As cancer cells grow, they demand more and more of the body's nutrition. Cancer takes a child's strength, destroys organs and bones, and weakens the body's defenses against other illnesses.
All kinds of cancer, including childhood cancer, have a common disease process - cells grow out of control, develop abnormal sizes and shapes, ignore their typical boundaries inside the body, destroy their neighbor cells, and can ultimately spread to other organs and tissues.
September is Childhood Cancer Awareness month. Annually Chili's Restaurant, an affiliate of St. Jude Hospital, has one day in September just for St. Jude. The entire days profit goes towards the help and research for these children!
Self-Evaluation Persuasive Speech -
I am happy to say that I am very pleased with how my persuasive speech turned out! I feel as though I am getting more and more confident being in front of the class. It is amazing that I can remember how awful speech was in high school. Total Terror...... However, I do still need some help with the note cards. It is like I know that they are there and I take advantage. One more speech to go, I will be trying even harder not to use them on the next one!
