Have you or someone you know been affected by Cancer?  Cancer is a disease that touches many of us in some way.  Real Time Cancer is a Maritime organization run by young Newfoundlander and cancer patient Geoff Eaton.  Geoff's mission is to make Real Time Cancer the #1 cancer resource for young Canadian cancer patients when they are looking for support and non-medical information.  Check out the Real Time Cancer Portal (an online community) here.  Real Time Cancer wallet cards are available in the guidance office.
