Did You Know...
... about 90% of lung cancer deaths are caused by smoking (Health Effects)?

... "more than 440,000 Americans each year lose their lives to smoking telated diseases" (MDCH)?
Most people know or have known somebody in their life that smokes. For me, it is my grandma. She smokes nearly every day, and has since she was eighteen. When I was younger and around her, I constantly wished that she would stop before it was too late. Recently, she was diagnosed with stage three lung cancer from smoking cigarettes her whole life. Now, it may be too late for her, but not for that person in your life who smokes. Spread the word and help them live a happier, longer life.
