I don't like cancer either Ann, but the pictures of the hospital are very good and the reflections are great.

C is for Carver, too.
I see reflections in the first photo, too.
If people need to be hospitalized for cancer, this looks like it might be a nice place for it.

I don't like hospitals or cancer and hope you can stay for away from both!

Thanks to everyone for their comments. For the record, I don't like cancer either but since I was treated and continue to be followed at UNC for cancer (no active disease at this point), I have a lot of photographs of their facility. As a matter of fact when going for scans or appointments I've pretended that I'm really there for a photo shoot and since during the time I've been seen there (starting in 2005) they have built a new cancer hospital, it's been fun photographing it from start to finish as well as photographing the garden being put in. I see a lot of different doctors for side effects I've had since my lymph node dissection so I don't do this just at UNC. At every doctor I see I have a collection of photographs either at their offices (usually outside) or at places I go on the way home to take photographs. I could probably do the whole alphabet just with my too many doctors, ha. Cheers, Carver

I love the work of cancer centers. too many people I know, including my father and my brother-in-law (at 41) died of it.

Very well thought of the letter C. And yes the hospital looks new but don't like the cancer thing. ^_^

"I've pretended that I'm really there for a photo shoot"... What a creative way to experience hospital visits, Carver! Super C post of the Cancer Hospital. Looks like a competent place.
