Cancer Awareness

Today in class we went up to the lobby area and learned about cancer awareness. I checked my skin for skin cancer. The lady told us to stick me head inside a machine and to close the curtain around my neck so you could not see my shirt. The inside of the machine was glowing and purple. On my face I saw very few purple spots which meant skin damage. The lady gave me sun screen and told me to put it on whenever I am outside.After this I visited the mouth cancer table where lungs of people who don't smoke and lungs of people who smoked a pack a day for 20 years. The lungs of the person who smoked 20 packs a day was black and broken but the person who did not smoke at alls lung's were pinkish red and was full. This trip we took was very informational and nice to have at our school.
