OPRAH - Please shine your light on childhood cancer
Loading...
Uploaded by texanzrule57 on Sep 4, 2010
How can it be that childhood cancer is the NUMBER ONE disease killer of children under the age of 20, yet we hear almost NOTHING about it? It kills more children than asthma, cystic fibrosis, diabetes, and pediatric AIDS combined.
There are no national telethons to bring awareness to it, no major celebrities that we automatically 'connect' to it and most people don't even know what a gold ribbon represents (yet we ALL know what a pink ribbon represents!)
Along this journey we have met MANY brave children and parents who have fought or are still fighting this awful disease. Their stories are HEARTBREAKING and their courage is AMAZING.
Our mission is plain and simple. We're hoping that OPRAH, during her last season on air, will do a show on some of the heroes who are currently fighting and some who have lost the fight with this nasty disease. The world needs to hear about their courage, thier fight, their families and their lack of treatment options because of the lack of funding and awareness. In doing this, we're hoping that a light can finally be shone on something that NEEDS to be seen!
Our hope is that through the power of social networking - we can show the world...and Oprah...how important this issue is! We are partnering with our friends on Twitter @abolishcancer and @delprado to make this happen. If you're on Twitter - please follow them! On Facebook - we hope you share this with every single person you know so we can grow this page FAST and show an AMAZING amount of support for this cause! There is STRENGTH in numbers!
If Facebook can get Betty White to host Saturday Night Live - let's see if it can get Oprah to spotlight childhood cancer!

It was a clever idea: if FB ppl could get Betty White to host SNL, maybe they could get Oprah to do a show on childhood cancer during her final season. 55K ppl pulled together, but could not convince her to skip another segment on marital infidelity or self-aggrandizing celebrity.
