Lung cancer unit needs to fund early detection
November 27th, 2007
November is Lung Cancer Awareness Month. Unfortunately, lung cancer does not get much press, even though it takes the lives of more Americans each year than breast, prostate, colon liver and kidney cancers and melanoma combined.This year, for the first time, both houses of the state Legislature have memorialized November as Lung Cancer Awareness Month. Both Gov. Eliot Spitzer and Albany Mayor Jerry Jennings have signed proclamations declaring November as Lung Cancer Awareness Month.
