The Big "C"?

During my sister's pregnancy, she developed a lump on her neck. After her baby was delivered, doctors investigated the lump, and discovered that it was a growth on her thyroid.

Last week she had a biopsy done, and today she received a phone call informing her that it is indeed a tumour.

We aren't sure right now if it is benign or malignant, but she has been referred to a surgeon and is having the tumour removed as soon as possible.

I don't have much to say other than my obvious concern for my sister, and my horror to discover that 1 in 4 people in industrialized countries will develop Cancer.
