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.
