Let It Be: A Father Sings to Save His Baby Son From Cancer ...

Cancer is the leading cause of death by disease in children under the age of fifteen.?46 children are diagnosed with cancer every day. ?

And on July 5th, 2012, 11-month-old, Noah, was diagnosed with a malignant brain tumor. Unable to sit back and wait, his father, a musician, recorded this incredible version of ?Let It Be.?

Cancer is touching too may families. ?1 in 2 men and 1 in 3 women in our country are expected to be diagnosed with it in their lifetimes. ?The cost of cancer care is on the rise, from $104 billion in 2006 to over $173 billion in 2020.??Cancer doctors are so gravely concerned that they have authored op-eds about it in the New England Journal of Medicine, warning that the rates at which cancer is hitting could prove an insurmountable burden to our health care system.

And the rates of pediatric cancer in children, including in 11 month old babies, begs the question: What is going on?

While there are genetic triggers and predisposition, a growing body of scientific research is pointing to the role that toxins, chemicals and other pollutants are having on the health of our families. Organizations like the Environmental Working Group and the Children?s Environmental Health Center at Mt. Sinai are digging into it.

Thank goodness. ?Because we can no longer afford to turn a blind eye to these environmental triggers. ?The health of our country is dependent on the health of our children.

Let them ?Shine until tomorrow, Let It Be???

Please help spread this link?http://www.letitbefornoah.com?because cancer is touching too many lives, taking too many children, and the suffering is immeasurable and has to be stopped. Having looked into the eyes of mothers who have lost their children to this disease, the eyes of the truest of friends whose moms have been diagnosed and into the eyes of the children fighting it, there simply has to be Less Cancer.
