Yesterday's Boston Globe had an article called You Survived Cancer. Now What? that focused on the difficulties that Shari Dicker and other survivors of adult-onset cancer face as a result of having the good fortune of being a long term cancer survivor. The article talks about the Lance Armstrong Foundation Adult Survivorship Clinic that was announced on August 30 at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute in Boston. The Lance Armstrong Foundation gave a $1 million dollar grant to Dana-Farber to make this new clinic a reality.

The Boston Globe article says:

Armstrong, a survivor of testicular cancer, recently jump-started something of a minor social movement around the issue, drawing attention to the problems of survivors, in addition to providing direct funding. His foundation's "LiveStrong" yellow wristbands have become the fashion statement of the moment -- worn by dozens of Olympic athletes, among others -- and are helping to raise money for survivorship research and care.

This is one of the best articles I've read so far, in terms of explaining exactly how LiveStrong campaign money is being used.
