Now it's MY turn to be curious. Be honest now.....how much money have you given towards cancer research?
I sincerely hope you don't "detect" a sarcastic tone in my question. I'm being serious.

Randy,
First of all, I should not have to give any money to cancer research, because it is a priority that should be sufficiently funded by the government. How do you explain that more ressources are dedicated to killing research (eg weaponry) than to healing research ?
Secondly, it is not just cancer research that needs money, it is also end of life care, prevention, etc...
This year I gave $25 for research, $250 to a mother with three kids who recently lost their dad, in a fund for their education.
Also, at the recent funeral of my uncle, we refused all flowers and asked for donations to be directed to the hospital that took care of him in his last days.
