1) Karleigh Daniels:-
I do have risk factors for cancer. For starters, my mom and grandma have both had breast cancer. My grandma just recently passed from cancer, and my mom just recently beat breast cancer. Luckily, the have both got tested for the brca cancer gene, and they have not found it in my family yet. Doctors are still confused and questioning as to why my mom then got it, and got it so early in her life. One of the risk factors that I also am concerned about is the fact that even though I put sunscreen on every morning, I still fear that I could be exposed to ultraviolet radiation rays. With that being said, I was able to change this risk factor by slimming it down and making sure that I am applying sunscreen every single morning to help to limit my exposure to the sun. Like I said before, I just recently lost my grandma to cancer. She had breast cancer several years ago, and she was able to beat it, but it then came back and was a lot more aggressive and spread to many many parts of her body. What she ended up passing away from was metastatic cancer. With that being said, my mom just beat breast cancer! Unfortunately for her, she lost her mom to cancer through the process, but she is here now and stronger than ever!

Yes, I have certain risk factors for cancer. Genetic, Random, and exposure to UV light. They’re two factors I have absolutely no control over, but I can take preventative care and treatment for. My dads’ side of the family has very light pale skin and has a history of skin cancer. I have that same light pale complexion and spend time out in the sun quite frequently. My mom’s side of the family has a very strong connection with cancer. All of the men have had cancer, and only a few have survived it, including my grandfather. I listed random because it happens all the time and cancer is so frequent and common one third of women develop a kind of cancer. My mom is currently battling cancer, and it is random. She has a very aggressive form of rare cancer. I can improve my odds of not developing cancer by making little changes to my diet such as eating less food high in cholesterol and sugar. I can also improve my odds by continuing to exercise frequently. A few other things I can do is not participate in drugs or alcohol consumption. The best was for me to avoid skin cancer is limiting my sun exposure and wearing UV protective clothes and hats when in the sun. I have been fortunate enough to not lose any close loved ones to cancer and I pray that I do not lose my mom or my grandfather as they are both still fighting their battles with cancer.

Cancer is essentially a group of diseases that are all characterized by cells that grow “out of control.” There are three primary stages of cancer development which include initiation, promotion, and progression. I do have a risk of getting cancer when I am older because several people in my family have had cancer and it can be passed down through genes. This is a risk factor that I cannot change. Other risk factors can include poor diet and lack of physical activity. It is very easy to change both of these risk factors. Eating a better diet that includes fruits and vegetables is a much healthier option then going to eating fast food the majority of the time. It is also difficult with the pandemic and online schooling to be physically active. It is important to stay physically active by getting exercise in order to prevent this risk factor from causing cancer. Unfortunately, with the rise of people consuming fast food and dining out at restaurants has caused many people to have risk factors for cancer due to the poor diet that many people are consuming. Many people in my family have had cancer in their lifetime, some today still survive, and others has since passed on.
