So many of us know someone who has battled cancer and won or battled cancer and lost. I light this candle on my blog today in honour of my Mother who is a cancer survivor and my Brother who fights cancer everyday with dignity and courage. I love them both so very much!

I hope that evil disease gets defeated!
That is such a great candle and what a great idea to do. I saw it over on the Cat blogosphere and should have put it on my blog. I didn't realize that today was cancer day. I sure hope it doesn't come back for me. Take care and thanks for putting this up on your post.
Vim want a good weekend
I pray for all who have it get better
I'll take the sail to Portugal and the circular pola

Yes, the mom posted this on her personal blog today. We do hope for a cure!
We like this - Mom's Mom and pop had cancer and so many friends and family have it now. We hope someday there will be no more cancer.
I have lost many people and pets because of this horrible disease. We hope for the day it is gone. Lots of love, Debbie and holly
Mom is a cancer survivor herself...continued good health for your Brother...

Purrs to all dealing with cancer,especially your brother.
I am tweeting and sharing your post on Facebook now... I had a mother-in-law who passed from cancer....((((hugs)))) to you and your brother
A lovely post my friend. Purrs for your brother.
Wonderful Post and I purrs for brother
Your Mom and your Brother are so brave! We purr in great admiration for your Mom's strength in defeating cancer, and for your Brother's continued efforts in fighting it. Mommy had a Grandfather who survived cancer in his 70's. Sadly, he passed away 10 years later from a botched surgical procedure that was meant to be very simple with only a 5% risk of complications.

Mum had this evil cancer and I have put this picture on my side bar in her memory. Unfortunately by the time it was discovered it was too far advanced for her to beat it. It would have been her birthday next week so we will take some flowers to the churchyard where her ashes are interred.
We are so glad you mom beat this evil disease and hope your brother will win his fight too.

What a sweet post....I have people in my family that have had cancer. Some survived and some didn't sadly enough... I love the candle and will post it....Blessings to you and your family.....
It's Sunday and I'm just now getting over here to visit. Love the topic and glad for the reminder. We must continue to believe for a cure. You are in my thoughts and in my heart as you mark this very personal day for your family.
Cancer is such a terrible disease, and we are purring and praying for a cure. We, too, have been touched by cancer, in our family, and our thoughts are with you, Cat.
Beautiful post and beautiful candle. I lost many of my relatives with cancer. I pray for your brother. Hopefully there will be cure.
We're purring for a cure!
Thank you so much for your visit and the purrs while we await my test results and for my mom's nerves.
I've been so totally involved in Au's health that I missed this. Hope your brother remains well, and that this "cancer vaccination" I read about will soon be a reality.
Greetings Catrina,
We were surprised to learn that February 4th is World Cancer Day. In the US Cancer Survivor Day in June, as dad is a cancer survivor. I think we need to help get the word out because I did not know any thing and nor did my wife who works at a cancer center. Thank you for bringing t to our attention.
February is heart month, which I also celebrate, having had open-heart surgery.
Wishing you all the best,
Miss Kitty and Egmont
