This is my own personal cause & for those that don't have one, they may want to think about donating to one of the Sarcoma
Foundations below. My mother passed away from a rare form of cancer called Lipsarcoma. It is one of about 50 subtypes of sarcomas that affect all age groups from the youngest to the oldest. It is a
"a cancer that begins in the muscle, fat, fibrous tissue, blood vessels, or other supporting tissue of the body". There is no cure & funding is low because of its rarity. As some of you may know,
the rarer the form of cancer, the less money that is usually allocated to it by the larger organizations or the NIH (National Health Institute) as well as fewer people donate because they just don't
know about it. This cancer just keeps coming back, grows back where it already was & spreads to other areas as well. You can learn more about it at these links.

Roy, now I have actually heard about that somewhere... besides Dr. J's comment! Some people could get a two for one by doing that!
Now saying that, I do watch my TV but I exercise too & I do intense exercise. I enjoy my shows with no guilt! Reply to this

I had a co-worker who did hook up a stationary bike to power a TV. He was a runner as I am, but this was for his kids. The deal was if a TV show was educational, no problem, if not, pedal time if the kids want to watch it! Reply to this
