March Is Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month

Colorectal cancer, also called colon cancer or large bowel cancer. These include cancerous growths in the colon, rectum and appendix. 

As taken from the Canadian Press... 

… the Colorectal Cancer Association of Canada, in conjunction with government partners, has been taking a "giant colon" on the road to cities across Ontario to educate people about the disease and to promote the need for screening.

Visitors enter a Giant Colon Exhibit designed to raise awareness for colon cancer checks in Toronto on Thursday March 4, 2010.
