West Stockton Urgent Care Tips on Preparing for Relay for Life 2016


Cancer is not just one of the deadliest diseases known to man, it’s also one of the most common. In 2015 alone, around 580,000 people succumbed to this ailment, while another 1.6 million were diagnosed with it. Fortunately, the American Cancer Society (ACS) has a novel way of raising funds for cancer research: Relay for Life. This event was first hatched in 1985 by Dr. Gordy Klatt, who decided to walk and run for 24 hours in an effort to raise money for the ACS. Eighty-three miles and $27,000 later, this selfless act would become the inspiration that sparked this annual event.
