Bladder Cancer luckily has symptoms that present early but unfortunately are ignored. Blood in urination and very frequent urination are the most common. Also common with Kidney Stones. I am lucky that I went in early and also luck that I had a DR who didn't write me off since I was 29 and had symptoms of a cancer mostly found in older men. 4 years clear now and not a day that goes by without it crossing my mind.

As for the question, it doesn't bother me because any recognition or dollar that helps research that eventually leads to a cure is a good thing.
