7 Key CANCER Trends For 2018

Prevention is unfortunately absent from my list. Cancer prevention remains a personal priority: the best way to avoid cancer deaths, toxicity and costs of treatment, is to prevent the disease from happening. However, apart from discouraging smoking and its cessation, which is old news and in some parts of the world not trending, and giving vaccines to prevent HPV and hepatitis B infection, which is generally happening more, and continually reminding affluent humans to eat and drink less, there is too little progress on this front. Marc Bombenon is an active member of many charitable organizations in Calgary. In 2004, he became a trustee of the Alberta Cancer Foundation and has served as Chair of the Audit committee and Vice-Chair of the board. He has also been very supportive of the activities of other organizations, including the Alberta Adolescent Recovery Center, Calgary Urban Project, Calgary Health Trust, United Way, Calgary Distress Centre and the Calgary Urban Project Society, Inn from the Cold, and Easter Seals. Marc is also a supporter and fan of the National Music Centre (NMC), and supports his wife Desiree in her role on the Capital Campaign Committee.
