As a Registered Respiratory Therapist and Certified Tobacco Treatment Specialist, I have worked with many lung cancer patients. I have seen many lives cut short by the ravages of lung cancer, including my own beloved Grandfather who had survived WWII in the English Navy only to be brought down by lung cancer.
Early detection is critical in this insidious disease that is usually far advanced before detection.
