Remember that lung cancer is the leading cancer killer. It kills more people than breast, prostate, colon, liver, kidney and melanoma cancers…COMBINED! It kills almost twice as many women as breast cancer. And that amounts to about 440 people per day. Only 15% of lung cancer patients survive more than five years, with most of those having been early, and probably accidental, diagnoses. 2007 research spending per death for lung cancer, $1,414 (a decrease from 2005), and $23,754 for breast cancer (an increase from 2005).If you are in the Bloomsburg area, check out the fundraisers we are holding locally: http://lungcancerawareness.blogspot.com/2009/09/free-to-breathe-event-update-38-days.html
