Top 5 Posts By Readership

The channel is gathering the top five post series in each blog. It’s really up to the blogger where to base the top post from on a certain time period reference.
I have to confess that I never scrutinize the stats of any of my blogs, I just look at the monthly summary. I’m always busy, you know!
Ha ha.
Just now I did, and wanted to give you the most popular posts in the blog. Mostly read, mostly commented I guess. He he.
Anyways…it’s really interesting to know which pages/posts are mostly clicked by the readers. Here goes…
1. Patrick Swayze Cancer Update This reminds me to keep mentioning here, real cancer stories. Not just celebrities but from people whose stories will inspire. With celebrities, readers want to know what’s the update now. Current news on Patrick Swayze says that he is continuing the battle with cancer, although he is already ready for the worst and has readied his will.
I believe that’s just practical, to be ready for the worse. We all hope he survives the battle, but practicalities has to be taken cared of.
Readers are looking for basic information. While I often link to the CDC or Mayo Clinic, the National Cancer Information for their fact sheets and everything else there is to know about several cancer types, maybe I should have some basic cancer info kind of post. Doesn’t have to be too long, but a downsized version. I should put this on my to-do lists!
3. Sorafenib: Miracle Cure for Liver Cancer
Readers will always want the recent treatments and whether they are available to them. Either they are just cross-referencing what they already know, or they are doing some research themselves so that they can ask their physicians and oncologists about it. Like I have always preached in blogging, one should be a discerning and informed patient. In this day and age of information technology, the internet is a valuable resource of information.
Though you gotta be smart enough to know which information are trashy. That’s why, always discuss what you found on the web, with a healthcare professional. First thing you have is your doctor. He always know better, instead of asking the blogger where you got that particular info. I know that my job may not stop at directing you to the right people and professionals, I don’t want to make the mistake of giving advice that isn’t in my capacity to give. In blogs where I write, I always say that it is for educational purposes only, to give you some insights on current developments and should not replace the advice of your doctor. But you already know that, right?
4. Dave Matthews Band @ Stand Up For A Cure Concert Series
Finding the cure for cancer takes a lot of money. The good news is that, every citizen (big or small) wants to help in any way. BUT, they want to have fun too while helping. That’s why fun cancer charity events are a seller.
5. New Study Found Blood Test For Early Stage Lung Cancer
That catching cancer in the earliest stage possible, is already known — and the world is i think listening. People want to be on top of the current on cancer diagnostics. The least invasive the test is (of course should be of high accuracy), the more it will be more patient-friendly, I think.
So there! I think I should this kind of post more often. See you again!
