Cancer is not a single disease but one which manifests itself in many different forms. Sometimes cures for cancers are not possible and many people feel hopeless and helpless.
While everybody wishes that a cure be found tomorrow, care is needed today.
The final programme to mark Europe against Cancer Week shows you the care and support that many of the cancer charities and support groups can give you as an individual. The final choice has to be yours. Help is there.
