Just saw a horrifying statistic on this deadly disease....

176,000 people per year diagnosed with Lung Cancer.

165,000 people per year die of Lung Cancer.

not good odds...

Journey,

How many of those are smoking related or can be determined to be, I wonder?

85 to 90% of all cases are due to smoking or chewing tobacco.

surprising to me, only 22% of adults smoke...I would have thought itwas closer to half!

1 in 5 not bad.

Only 5% survive lung cancer for a lengthy time period, the more I read the more depressing this is...smoking gotta be one of the single dumbest things anyone can do to themself.

also, a chest XRay cannot detect lung cancer, only a CT scan can detect .

hopefully someone will quit reading this.
