Today we stand together in support of those affected by cancer, honoring the fighters, remembering loved ones, and recognizing the caregivers and healthcare professionals who make a difference every day. World Cancer Day is a reminder of the importance of awareness, prevention, and compassion. Together, we can support hope and progress.
A quick reminder that a little preparation goes a long way. Secure heavy furniture and appliances, know safe spots to Drop, Cover, and Hold On, keep an emergency kit ready, and review your family or workplace communication plan. Also, know how to shut off gas, water, and electricity if needed. Staying prepared helps keep everyone safer. 💪
