This advert is insensitive, irresponsible and a waste of money which could have been spent on palliative care or counselling for families of cancer sufferers.

I do not think anyone needs an ad like this to discover cancer. Almost every wry family will have been touched by this horrible disease and know only too well what it does to patient and family. Must be horrific to watch if you are undergoing get treatment at the moment. Remove this insensitive advert at once!

Out of respect to all cancer sufferers, dead and alive, remove this ad. Nobody wants to get cancer, for themselves or anyone they know . Have some compassion.

Please remove this ad ASAP. It is offensive and a fund raising publicity stunt to get attention - this is my opinion.

Please remove adv stating "I want cancer" as it is insulting to anyone who has survived cancer or anyone who has helplessly watched a loved one die from this dreadful disease. Donations should not be wasted in this manner. Just think of all the good that money could have done. All donations should be accounted for annually.
