A retired politician who was given a clean bill of health after going through treatments for blood cancer, says the support system in the province has grown.
Former premier Paul Davis says with the help of a great team, the NL Leukemia and Lymphoma society now hosts the awareness event: “Light the Night.”
He says when he was diagnosed in 2011 there was no public knowledge in the province about the type of cancer.
Light the Night will take place next Saturday starting at 5 p.m. at Paradise Park. Bands will include Bic and the Ball Points, Courtney Fowler and the Masterless Men.
