Mold cannot give you cancer; however, it can make you sick and you should not eat it or give it to the birds, as they will become ill also. If you accidently eat bread with a little mold it won't make you sick, but if you persist on eating a lot of mold the above poster is correct. During hot weather I keep my bread in the fridge. Warmth and the yeast in the bread is what causes mold, so get that bread in the fridge!
