Dear Editor,

Why are we not flying the colours of cancer.? This is what could be hung in McBurney Lane or around City hall all year round.

Lung cancer: white

Brain cancer: grey

Breast cancer: pink

Liver cancer: emerald green

Lymphoma: lime green

Prostate cancer: light blue

Stomach cancer: periwinkle blue

Bone cancer: yellow

Leukemia: orange

Colon cancer: dark blue

People going through this should be recognized. It鈥檚 a hard fight. I know, two times.

Jacqueline Graham, 91原创
