During the month of March, Silver Cross Hospital is offering free colon cancer screening kits.
Many consider it a man’s disease. Yet half of those diagnosed with colorectal cancer each year are women. And about half of those women will die from it. This cancer is highly curable if caught at an early stage.

Plans for two competing proposals to build a freestanding emergency center in Frankfort were slowed, if not completely stopped, by two state review board votes on Tuesday.

Proposals from Riverside Medical Center and Silver Cross Hospital were both issued an intent to deny at a state review board meeting Tuesday.
