"Does quitting smoking or never smoking cure lung cancer?No. Quitting smoking (or never starting) is important for your overall health and the health of your lungs, but will not prevent you from getting lung cancer. About 55% of those newly diagnosed with lung cancer are former smokers or people who have never smoked. Research shows that even 30 years after quitting smoking, there is still an elevated risk of getting lung cancer. In addition, each year, as many as 30,000 people who have never smoked are diagnosed with it."- LUNGevity Foundation
Hope is both the earliest and the most indispensable virtue inherent in the state of being alive. If life is to be sustained hope must remain, even where confidence is wounded, trust impaired. --Erik Erikson
