This year, the Canadian Cancer Society focuses its message on parents and caregivers caregivers of young children, emphasizing their role in ensuring that, children are practicing sun sale behaviours behaviours whenever possible. More than 67,000 Canadians developed skin cancer in 1998. Skin cancer occurs frequently, but is usually usually treated successfully without requiring hospitalization. hospitalization. However, a small percentage percentage of the above cases include melanoma of the skin. It is estimated that in 1998, about 740 Canadians will have died from melanoma of the skin, which is almost always curable if treated early. Children arc especially vulnerable lo the sun's exposure. exposure. One blistering sunburn before the age of 18 can double double a child's risk of developing developing skin cancer later in life. This is especially important for parents and caregivers of young children to be aware of during the summer months, because of the amount of time children spend playing outdoors. Adults should ensure that both they and the children they are caring for avoid the sun between 11 a.m. and 4 p.m. They should seek shade while enjoying activities outside, or, if no shade is available, create their own with umbrellas or an awning. Babies under one year of age should always be kept out of direct sun. During the summer children children also spend a lot of time in or around water. Water reflects only a small amount of ultraviolet light; the rest can penetrate below the water's surface. People swimming or playing in water absorb nearly as much ultraviolet radiation as those on land nearby. Therefore, children playing in or near water need to have their sunscreen sunscreen reapplied often, and they need lo wear a broad? brimmed hat to protect their' face, neck and cars. The Canadian Cancer Society urges all parents and caregivers of young children' to be sun smart and follow the SunScnsc guidelincs- Slip! Slap! Slop! ^ • Slip on a shirt! j- • Slap on a hat! • Slop on sunscreen! For more information about skin cancer or sun protection, protection, call the Canadian- Cancer Society's toll free!
