Evie,
My sister didn't have cancer, she had a rare disease call Polychondritis-it's considered one of the orphan diseases. Little known about it, little funding, etc. She actually let doctors at the University of Colorado do experimental treatments on her for a number of years so they could learn about more about this disease and hopefully help other people who were diagnosed with it. Yeah...she was one of those people who really changed your life.
