As I'm sure everyone has heard, this week has not been the greatest for Lance Armstrong. He has been stripped of all his Tour de France medals and his endorsement deals have been pulled. Although he has remained unwavering with his innocence, it seems that all the evidence has proved otherwise. One thing that I have to admire him for though is the foundation he started, LiveStrong. While working on my "tip sheets" for the Young Breast Cancer Survivor's Network, I have used that website several times. It provides a vast array of resources regarding diet, health, fitness, lifestyle and a community tab to connect others. It has videos, blog posts, success stories, and links for living a healthy life. It also has resources and one-on-one support for those diagnosed with cancer and survivors. Even though its founder has tarnished his own name, I felt it was important to share how great this website is. I know there are some other students working with cancer research, and I would encourage you to look at all these websites have to offer.
