Cancer is an illness that has impacted every individual either directly or indirectly in some way. We have known people who have fought against cancer, and also those who were unable to beat this deadly disease. The Canadian Cancer Society has been holding a campaign throughout April to encourage Canadians to wear a daffodil pin to show their support for those who are fighting against cancer, those who have survived and to remember those have lost their lives. April 27th is Daffodil Day. There will be several events taking place throughout the country.
You can view all event listings at: http://www.fightback.ca/events.html

“To some, the daffodil is just a flower. To us, it is a symbol of strength and courage, a symbol of life. It says we will not give up. It says we will fight back. It says we will beat cancer. Are you ready to join this fight?” (Canadian Cancer Society, 2011)
