It is time. The clock starts now. Consider this post WordPress event number one.

In honor of the start of National Young Adult Cancer Awareness Week, let’s WordPress cancer! I know of several WordPress bloggers participating, and if you have a WordPress blog, there are still 24 hours to join in the world-record setting (until 7AM CST tomorrow). You can find information about the feat here, resources about adolescent and young adult (AYA) cancer here, and even a participant blog badge here. Encourage people to leave a comment on your participating post. Every comment on a participating WordPress blog will add to the record. If you do participate, be sure to link back to this post or another AYA-related post on Nursetopia or leave a comment about your post so I can include it in the official count. And don’t forget to tell people about the world-record via your social networks, as well.

If you do not have a WordPress blog, no worries. You can still participate in the world record. Leave a comment on this blog or another participating blog. Comments can be general or a tribute, honoring either someone age 15 to 39 impacted by cancer or a healthcare professional, individual, or organization devoting time to caring for AYAs with cancer.

Here we go. It’s time to Break Cancer…yes, with WordPress.
