A Death that is 100% Preventable...

...the cancer community it wishes it had that rate!

People raise hundreds of thousands of dollars every year for cancer prevention and research.  They run, walk, and eat yogurt, while all the proceeds go to cancer.  Great strides have been made in the cure, and I am grateful.  I am grateful for my friends and family who have survived cancer.  I am happy that they have survived and been cured.  So glad for cancer treatment and cancer research

However, isn’t it ironic how much time and money go into finding a cure for cancer and yet there IS a cure for DUI vehicular homicide.
That is beer all over the road and the drunk's truck in the background

100% preventable.  No early detection; no tests or exams; no signs or symptoms to watch for; no family history no predisposition.

Ironic isn’t it that we as a nation and community fight so hard to win the battle against cancer, and yet, where is the fight against drunks and drunk driving?  

Drunk driving will affect 1 in 3 of us. (source)
