LOS ANGELES, Feb. 1, 2018 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- In support of the 14 million people diagnosed with cancer worldwide and their caregivers, Digital LifeCloud® is discounting the price of its membership package. The new reduced rate, which will kick off on World Cancer Day on February 4^th and extends throughout the month of February, will give subscribers access to an online organizing system for all their personal and health information, as well as free apps, organizing tips, forms, webinars, and videos. For more details, go to www.DigitalLifeCloud.com and click on the Gift Card to see the complete package.

"As a caregiver, cancer survivor, and in honor of my sister Selma Schimmel, founder of Vital Options International and who died three years ago after 30 years of being a passionate patient advocate, I wanted to make sure that cancer patients feel supported," says Debby Bitticks, Chairman Emeritus of Vital Options International and co-founder of Digital LifeCloud®. "In addition to discounting the price of Digital LifeCloud®, we are making The Cancer Concierge® (www.thecancerconcierge.org), a free organizing eBook based on the time-tested strategic system Selma used to manage her own treatment, available via our site."

With cancer being one of the leading causes of mortality worldwide, more millennials are finding themselves thrust into caregiving roles. According to a 2015 AARP Public Policy Institute and National Alliance for Caregiving study, 9.5 million adults between the ages of 18-34 are caregivers. Strapped with job and family responsibilities, many rely on systems such as Digital LifeCloud®, which allows them to stay on top of caregiving responsibilities and manage important documents, even from afar.

According to Dorothy Breininger (a.k.a. "Dorothy the Organizer'), a best-selling author, problem solver and co-creator of Digital LifeCloud®: "I manage my life, the care of my elderly mother and sister, who is battling stage IV breast cancer, all the while traveling the world for work. I know that if I lost my purse or briefcase, I would still have access to my family's vital information 24/7."

Recent National Cancer Institute statistics show that of the approximately 1.6 million people diagnosed annually in the United States, most at some point will require the caregiving services. For many, the personal satisfaction in caregiving is overshadowed by physical, emotional and psychological demands.

"As a licensed social worker, I've seen the toll a cancer diagnosis can have on a family," says Lynn Benson, co-founder of Digital LifeCloud®. "To me, a Digital LifeCloud® membership is a gift of love toward one's self or another. And, with Valentine's Day soon here, this one sells for less than a bouquet of flowers and lasts way longer."
