My job is helping out a school that has a child with cancer. They are collecting soda can pop tops, every 1000 is said to give the child a free cancer treatment. I did some research, and Snopes.com says this is a false statement. Has anyone heard truth in this program of collecting pop tops for free treatments. I was hoping there was was truth to it, but I just don't see it happening.

It doesnt really hurt just feels strange. Its hard to even describe the feeling except just that I know something feels weird and out of the ordinary. My pulse rate seems fine so I dont know what it could be. Sometimes i guess it could be described as a feeling like i put vicks rub or icy hot on my chest. I am 27 years old so I wouldnt think it would be a heart attack related. Any ideas?
