Bladder cancer risk factors include smoking, genetic mutations, and exposure to certain chemicals.

 

 

Breast Cancer

Regular mammograms are the best tests doctors have to find breast cancer early. Talk to your doctor about when to start and how often to get a screening mammogram.

 

 

Cervical Cancer

Screening tests and the HPV vaccine can help prevent cervical cancer

 

Colorectal Cancer

If you are 45 years old or older, get screened. Screening tests can help prevent colorectal cancer or find it early, when treatment works best.

 

Gynecologic Cancers

Five main types of cancer affect a woman’s reproductive organs: cervical, ovarian, uterine, vaginal, and vulvar. As a group, they are called gynecologic cancers.

 

Head and Neck Cancers

Cancers of the head and neck include cancers that start in several places in the head and throat, not including brain cancers or cancers of the eye.

 

Kidney Cancer

Smoking is the most important risk factor for kidney and renal pelvis cancers. To lower your risk, don’t smoke, or quit if you do.

​

Liver Cancer

To lower your risk for liver cancer, get vaccinated against hepatitis B, get tested for hepatitis C, and avoid drinking too much alcohol.

Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death in the United States. To lower your risk, quit smoking, avoid secondhand smoke, and get your home tested for radon.

 

Lymphoma

Lymphoma is a general term for cancers that start in the lymph system. The two main kinds are Hodgkin lymphoma and non-Hodgkin lymphoma.

 

Mesothelioma

Mesothelioma is a cancer that forms in the thin tissue that lines many of your internal organs. Exposure to asbestos causes most cases of mesothelioma.

 

Myeloma

Myeloma is a cancer of the plasma cells. In myeloma, the cells grow too much, forming a mass or tumor in the bone marrow.

 

Ovarian Cancer

Ovarian cancer causes more deaths than any other cancer of the female reproductive system. But when ovarian cancer is found early, treatment works best.

 

Prostate Cancer

Most prostate cancers grow slowly and don’t cause any health problems. Learn more and talk to your doctor before you decide to get tested or treated for prostate cancer.

 

Skin Cancer

Skin cancer is the most common cancer in the United States. To lower your skin cancer risk, protect your skin from the sun and avoid indoor tanning.

Annie Washington Mattocks

 

I desire to remain active as long as possible. I believe that a person should never give up or in and should always use his or her inner strength. I further believe that a person should keep positive, and stay in touch with God and nature.  Life challenges make a person stronger for battles to come. Finally “Life Happens.”

 

 

 

 

 

Mildred D. Johnson    

 

I was shocked but unafraid. I went through my journey trusting God. In addition, I went through radiation therapy and worked every day. I cried sometimes but I still had to trust God. I asked the Lord why me, but I still had hope. My friends walked me through with prayer.  My husband walked me through with love and understanding. I made it through by God’s grace and His healing power.

 

 

Shirley Elizabeth McKoy

 

I have faced cancer twice with my husband and it was the last thing I was expecting to happen to me! I had not had any major surgeries or illnesses in my whole life.  Now all of a sudden I was faced with this, cancer! Having made it safely through surgery, chemo and radiation. I can truly say that “God has been good to me.” He gave me a good husband and caregiver who never missed any appointments or treatments. He was always there when I needed him. I believe that my “turning it over to the lord and leaving it there” is why I am standing here today!

Robert Kimbrough

 

I am the president of Onslow County Prostate Cancer Support Group. I look radiation for 8 weeks in 2000 for cancer prostate. I am also a member of Onslow Memorial Hospital and Patient Advisory Council for 6 years. I believe God because he has taken care of me.

 

Margie L. Badillo

 

In 2010, I had just gotten married and beginning a new chapter in my life. I had just turned 42 years old and decided to have a physical and was sent to have a mammogram. I was called in to discuss the results, which my oldest, son Christian accompanied me. It was then that had diagnosed me with breast cancer. I remember the doctor saying hear anything else. I began with denial, and then came fear of the unknown, followed by anger. And then, “Why me?" As time went on, I noticed the support from family and friends who were showing me love, praying for me, accompanying me to chemo and radiation appointments. By the time I went to have my mastectomy, God was in my heart. My body was weak but my faith was strong, denial became acceptance, anger became love and
“Why Me?” became a blessing. My journey has taught me to appreciate life and see things and people through God’s eyes.

 

Pamela Simmons

 

In 1998, I was diagnosed with lung cancer. As I sat there and listened to the doctor while he was talking. I was thinking to myself, Lord you are a healer. Immediately, I began to pray. Honestly, I decided to put it into God’s hands. I did not return to the doctor until 1 year after. At that time, the doctor couldn’t find absolutely anything. To God Be the Glory.

 

 

 

Augusta Chadwick Jr.

 

I had moments of despair. I never asked God, “Why me?” I held onto his hand and said, let it be your will. I lost faith because I did not want my family to suffer for me...but my God being almighty, God showed me the way.

 

 

 

 

 

Gloria Gail Buford

 

My cancer journey began in 1986, after a blood transfusion, during surgery, I was infected with a virus call hepatitis C.  I live with HCV unknowingly until it started to affect my body and attack my liver, eventually causing liver cancer. It became very clear that I would need a liver transplant in order to survive. I’m so blessed to have gotten my name on the liver transplant list, and my liver was successfully transplanted on Oct 1, 2013. In 2015, I was cured through a newly approved treatment.

 

 

Donald Andrew Burwell

 

I am enjoying one of life’s challenges of having cancer in my life. It has shown me how to become an overcomer so that others will see me as an example and understand how to survive and overcome cancer in their life also.

 

 

 

 

Judy Picket Jordan

 

When I received a call informing me that I had colon cancer, I was really scared. I have been Christian most of my life but there comes a time when the words written in the Bible have to come alive in your life.

 

Constance Laverne Grady

 

My cancer journey initially was very frustrating and full of anxiety because I had a very serious problem but could not seem to get my male doctor to really take my symptoms serious. He continually told me that I was changing life and that  I should not worry, but my inner gut told me that I should seek a second  opinion, and  I did. I talked with one of my female doctors that I worked with and after explaining my symptoms; she immediately ordered a battery of test for me, which included the transvaginal ultrasound, CA-125 blood test. The ultrasound did reveal the cancer which was still encapsulated (did not appear to have spread). An abdominal hysterectomy was performed in 1998. Gastric fluid was obtained during the surgery that was later sent to Duke Medical Center to make sure the cancer did not spread into my abdominal cavity. I had to wait 30 days for allowing me to still be here to share this with all of you. Please ladies know your bodies always get a second opinion if you have any doubt.

 

Michael Randall Gray

 

In 2002 my final physical in the Marine Corps revealed a small mass on the corner of my right jaw which was discovered in September of 2014 to be low grade Lymphoma. I went through 6 months of chemotherapy now I’m in remission. I still go once a month to chemo maintenance.

 

Eunice Vernell Bennett

 

Any cancer journey can be scary but it has made me who I am today. Ultimately, God and prayer is the answer. When I went into surgery in June 2006 after having been  diagnosed with colon cancer,  my  husband, my family, my pastor and my church family were there praying for me continuously.  Little did I know that I would go into cardiac arrest, and yet the doctors were able to revive me and bring me back to life. God spared my life that I might be a testimony to the greatness of God and courage others who are going through the process. All cancer was removed and no chemo treatments were need. So no matter what I walk through I can always say, “What a faithful God is he! He is faithful all the time, everywhere and in every situation that we will ever have to endure.

 

David Wendell Sharpless

 

When I first found out I had cancer. I was shocked and I became depressed. Through my journey there were times that I felt I was going to lose my mind. Chemo, the very thing that is supposed to help made me feel weak, worn out and exhausted. God saw me through the whole journey. Now I am cancer free!

 

 

Thomas Legrand Flager

 

I had cancer two times. In 2006, I had prostate cancer which came from Agent Orange gas use during the Vietnam War. I had forty two treatments of radiation and I never missed day of work. I took radiation in the morning, slept during the day and worked at night for forty two days. In 2012 I had colon cancer. I had an operation in which I was cut from the bottom of my chest to the bottom of my stomach. I lost part of my colon and the doctors didn’t think I would be able to live but God said, it was not my time to go yet. I thank God every day.

 

 

 

 

Lilye M. Stubbs

 

When I was diagnosed with cancer in 2000, I was sent to Greenville, then Chapel Hill for treatments, where I am still going once a year. I am free of cancer now for a couple of years.

 

Catherine Young

 

”CHOSEN”

Why I chosen I’ll never know; I guess God decided this long ago, Thanks God  hid foundation  for me was spiritually led; his grace and mercy provided to me as he bled. Can’t entertain fear while going through; Cause he held his head up for me and you. Some are inspired by the words I write; But the “WORD” SAYS I’M NOT TO BE KEPT BY FRIGHT. In a few days surgery will change my outward look; but deep inside my change will have searching in the book. I will be trying to see how to take what was made new and turn it into a sacred view, of how God takes our broken pieces and creates a new beginning when the old thing ceases.
