I fold for my Uncle Mac who died at 29yrs old from Brain Cancer in 1991. He fought hard for 2 years through grueling chemotherapy + medicine. The family greatly misses this fun loving, humorous uncle who always had a smile and a joke for you.
I fold for my 2 month old daughter, hopefully in her lifetime cancer will have a cure.
I fold for my parents. My family has a history of Alzheimer's, and I want to do everything I can to have that disease cured by the time my parents get up there. I know my mom is terrified of getting it and not knowing whats going on.
I fold for those out there who need this help. We all have busy lives, but folding is so simple. I fold for my mother who had cancer last year, and battled through it. I fold for a better future.
I fold for my grandfather who died from the worst cancer I have ever seen. I also fold for my step grandfather for died 2 months ago from cancer. Damn this disease.
I fold for 3 grandparents that died of cancer, and one grandparent with Alzheimers, plus anyone that I love or I am close with that could possibly ever become sick.

I am sorry to hear about your uncle. That is too young of an age. Hopefully with the help of everyone folding we can learn and find cures for these diseases.
My mom got breast cancer when I was 15. She fought it off for years with chemo. It went into remission then re-appeared in her bone marrow. From there it spread like a wild fire destroying every organ she had. She died in her bedroom. Yellow from jaundice. Suffocating in her oxygen mask. I was right there when she closed her eyes for good. She fought hard. She was a warrior.
Cancer treatment gives you hope but, ultimately, cannot fight the onslaught of this terrible disease. We need to fight it with technology. As hard as we can.
"Ascend may you find no resistance
Know that you made such a difference
All you leave behind will live to the end
The cycle of suffering goes on
But memories of you stay strong
Someday I too will fly and find you again"
I fold for my mother she has Brest Cancer and Bone Cancer and lives 5000 miles away. It makes me feel helpless, Folding is the least I can do to help.

I fold for everyone who has had cancer or any other diseases that hopefully will be curable within the next 10-20 years.
My father died of non-hodgkins lymphoma in 1990, 2 days after my 15th birthday. He underwent experimental treatment and lived in various cancer hospitals for 9 months until it finally could not be controlled any longer.
The owner of the company I presently work for had half of his left lung removed due to lung cancer last year. Last month, cancer was found in his other lung which was then operated on. He has never smoked a day in his life. The guy has been through absolute hell and I take one look at him... and I know F@H is worth my time.
