Document Summary
Maria had heard the dreaded word cancer her entire life. When she was a teenager her grandfather had died of lung cancer, but other than him, nobody close to her had ever been diagnosed with cancer. She knew that many old people died of cancerous growths. Cancer, like death itself, was something that maria would rather not think about. Not long after her cousin"s discovery, maria came down with a sore throat and visited a nearby medical clinic. While in the waiting room she noticed a brochure, what. You need to know about skin cancer, published by the national cancer institute of the national institutes of health. She took the brochure home to read and was surprised to learn that almost half of all mature adults are likely to have had skin cancer. She had thought cancers were pretty rare, except among the elderly.
