Although the wounds inflicted by cancer may not always be externally visible, they are there. Our society is full of those scarred for life, they are cancer's walking wounded.

I live in a city obsessed with zombies. No kidding! Since the inception of the popular television show, “The Walking Dead,” our town has become a mecca for those who don't mind the gory sights and sounds of the undead. The show is often filmed in my hometown, and residents will frequently join in the fun. The actors and actresses for the TV series love being covered in theatrical makeup, which usually consists of a lot of fake blood and loose, hanging skin. Though their appearance can be quite frightening, most residents here have learned to accept and even embrace these scary creatures.
During the day, it's not unusual to see zombies sitting at lunch counters conversing with a few of the locals, but in the evenings, watching the "dead" performing normal activities such as crossing a street can catch the unsuspecting town visitor off guard.
