Agh! Cancer affects people earlier and earlier. All kinds of pollution, pressure at work, irregular schedules - all of these factors are extremely harmful to people's health. The other day I read a news report that said there are more and more cases of leukemia every year - and that half of them are children. Such young kids having to endure the pain of chemotherapy - it's just wrong!
