Bring The Whole Family To Play In A Giant Colon!

Folks, I'm not making this one up! I couldn't if I tried! This is one strange event headed to my town! Read on:

Children like to play in it, adults enjoy learning
from it and senior citizens at a recent AARP
convention had their photo taken beside it. During
National Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month in March,
its coming to M. D. Anderson.

Its the Super Colon, and itll be installed in The
Park, Floor 2 of the Main Building near the Visitors
Gallery, for just two days: Tuesday-Wednesday, March
29-30.

The Super Colon is an inflatable, walk-through
reproduction of the human colon. The 8-foot-tall,
20-foot-long exhibit is traveling the nation to raise
awareness of the importance of colorectal cancer
screening. The Houston engagement is a partnership of
M. D. Anderson and the Cancer Prevention and Research
Foundation, Washington, D.C., which produced the
exhibit.

Employees and visitors are encouraged to visit Super
Colon to learn more about colorectal cancer and its
prevention in a fun and interactive setting.
Educational brochures and other materials also will be
available.

Colorectal cancer is the second leading cancer killer
but is 90% curable when detected early. Beginning at
age 50, all adults are at average or increased risk.
Men and women are equally likely to develop the
disease.

Early detection is the best defense against
colorectal cancer. Read M. D. Andersons Screening
Guidelines to learn more about colon cancer risk and
prevention. To schedule a colonoscopy at M. D.
Anderson, call (713) 794-5073.
