Episode Description
November is lung cancer awareness month. Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death in the U.S., due in part to the fact that so few cases are diagnosed at an early stage when cancer is most curable. Today we’re hoping to shed light on a type of cancer that carries a stigma—even though 80% of people diagnosed with lung cancer are former or never-smokers. Joining us for the show is Amy Copeland, the Associate Director of Medical Outreach at Lung Cancer Alliance (LCA), and Jenny White, a lung cancer survivor who never smoked who is now the Director of LCA’s Tennessee Chapter.
