Back to Fall 2008 / Winter 2009
My name is Grace White and I have lung cancer. I was diagnosed in November 2007 and the doctors told me that I had three months to live. Well, I’m still here, still fighting strong and advocating for better lung cancer screening and treatments.
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death in both men and women and approximately 25 percent of women and 15 percent of men with lung cancer have never smoked.
That’s why I’m teaming up with the American Lung Association of California to support Senate Bill 458, which would create a new Lung Cancer Early Detection and Treatment Research program.
