A new analysis by the American Cancer Society reveals death from cancer in the United States fell 31% between 1991 and 2018. Nevertheless, the organization also estimates that this year, nearly 1.9 million people will be diagnosed with cancer and more than 600,000 will die from it. According to UPI, cancer remains the second-leading cause of death in the United States. Significant gains have been made in four of the deadliest and most common cancer, namely lung, breast, colorectal, and prostate. Lung cancer is still the most common cause of cancer death nationally. However, the data showed death rates for the disease fell 2.4% annually between 2009 and 2013 and 5% annually between 2014 and 2018.
Treating cancer with chemotherapy can save your life, but at the same time, it can trash your hair--and everyone can see it. Many women choose to cover post-chemo hair loss and growout with scarves or hats. But there's no law that says you have to!

She embraced the look and returned to work--despite her trepidation. I remember returning to work with my dome shining bright...self-conscious and convinced that all eyes were focused on my bald head. Chinn says the most important things to have are a sense of humor and good hair products for every step along the way.
