I seemed to have totally missed this, but I’m Too Young For This, the popular community for young adults aged 15 – 39 with cancer, made it on TIME Magazine’s list of the 50 Best Websites of 2007. Congratulations!

From their website:

Our vision is to be the progressive, creative and disruptive voice for the young adult demographic in a future where the burden of cancer is marginalized to that of a manageable chronic condition—similar to HIV and diabetes—in a future where it is unilaterally accepted that survivorship is the cure to cancer.

Visitors to their website will find a thriving community, social networking links, instructions on how to host a happy hour, The Stupid Cancer Show radio broadcast and a host of other resources.
