KNOW YOUR BODY. CHECK YOURSELF. ACT EARLY.
In the United States, 72,000 15-40 year olds are diagnosed with cancer EVERY YEAR.
REMEMBER:
No one knows your body better than you.
Cars have "check engine" lights, computers have virus scans. We have self-awareness.
Our best chance of fighting cancer is finding it early. Know your family's health history, go to the doctor when something doesn't feel right. If your doctor isn't taking your symptoms seriously, ask why. You are your best health advocate. You know your body.
Check Yourself - take a moment so you can live a lifetime.
