Michelle,
I think your idea of the mutants is perfect. When you have cancer people do look and act differently. Where they do it intentionally or not I doubt it -- I guess it's just human nature. They don't really understand cancer and they only way to help them understand is to educate them. Good luck with your speech. I know it will be tremendous!
