Hooray for another lung cancer survivor!!

I just wanted to share the happy news that one of my fellow lung cancer fighters who is also my friend was declared to be in clinical remission on Thanksgiving day!  What a great thing to celebrate and give thanks for!  Way to go, Barb!  I'm so happy for you!

Please support Lung Cancer Awareness Month

Once again, I send out my annual plea to spread the word and contribute to the cause of eradicating lung cancer.  November is Lung Cancer Awareness Month.  Take a look at this video from Lungevity which gives a pretty personal perspective of how lung cancer impacts so many people:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C2eRyEDZMsQ.

Lungevity is one of many lung cancer organizations that are funding lung cancer research; promoting more public awareness of this issue; and providing support to people affected by lung cancer.

Here are some of my favorite organizations providing effective and helpful resources for lung cancer:

Lungevity - http://events.lungevity.org/site/PageServer?pagename=homepage&autologin=true
Lung Cancer Alliance - http://www.lungcanceralliance.org/
National Lung Cancer Partnership - http://www.nationallungcancerpartnership.org/
GRACE - Global Resource for Advancing Cancer Education - http://cancergrace.org/
Uniting Against Lung Cancer - http://www.unitingagainstlungcancer.org/

They all have useful information for learning more about lung cancer and all are worthy of support in their goals of improving the state of lung cancer research, prevention, treatment and eradication for our world.
