Each year, 60% of new cases of lung cancer are diagnosed in people who have NEVER SMOKED or quit decades ago!

There have been major advancements made in screening and curing most cancers, but very little advancement has been made in lung cancer research. Because lung cancer is known as a smoker's disease, it is thought that smokers bring lung cancer on themselves. This is not true as there are many non-smokers who get lung cancer, but smoker or not, no one deserves this horrible disease.

Lung cancer does not discriminate among ethnic groups, gender, or age - it strikes mothers and fathers, sons and daughters, sisters and brothers, husbands and wives. More and more young people are being diagnosed with lung cancer every day.

Please help get funding for lung cancer research so that a cure can be discovered for this horrific disease.

How can you help? It's easy. Please Send An Email To Your Senator, asking to support a new bill that is being brought before Congress: The Lung Cancer Mortality Reduction Act, that will provide funding for lung cancer research.

By clicking on the above link, it will take 2 minutes of your time (you don't need to know who your senators are, the form will find them for you), and you could be helping millions of people.

• Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death in the United States across all ethnic groups - 1 in 3 cancer deaths. Lung cancer will kill more people than breast, prostate, colon, liver, kidney and melanoma cancers COMBINED.
  
  

• Of those diagnosed with lung cancer, 1 in 5 women and 1 in 12 men NEVER SMOKED.
  
  

• The 5-year survival rate for breast cancer is 87%, prostate cancer 99%, and colon cancer 64%. The 5-year survival rate for lung cancer is 15%.
  
  

• Lung cancer will kill TWICE as many women as breast cancer.
  
  

• Only 16% of lung cancer patients are diagnosed at an early enough stage to be cured, and the majority of lung cancer patients will be diagnosed so late that they will die within one year of diagnosis.
  
  

• Lung cancer receives less funding per death than any other type of cancer.

Lung cancer can affect anyone at any time. It doesn't matter whether a person never smoked, is a former smoker, or is currently smoking - NO ONE DESERVES LUNG CANCER!
