AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY AMBASSADOR

Introducing Gianna Cericola, American Cancer Society Ambassador Post Date 23 September 2026

      September is the month that emphasizes awareness of several types of cancer: Childhood (gold ribbon), Leukemia/Blood (orange & red ribbon), Lymphoma (lime green ribbon). In many ways, cancer overlaps with chronic illness. Here is the link to my previous post on the parallels of cancer and chronic illness.

     Recently I saw a piece on NBC daytime news that featured Gianna Cericola as the Ambassador for the Philadelphia Chapter of the American Cancer Society. She was diagnosed with sarcoma in 2024, as a young adult in her 20's. The link for her interview on NBC Philly Live is inserted below

     September also is Awareness Month for Ovarian Cancer (teal ribbon) and Prostate Cancer (light blue ribbon). Those will be featured next week.
