Kaori Takehana Yeah, her cause of death reminded me your lung cancer awareness campaign on Pinterest.

STOP for one minute. Just one. This message impacts YOU. 31 year-old Brandon Hora died of lung cancer. No, he didn't smoke. ANYONE can get lung cancer. It's time the attention and funding is equal opp. Beyond time. This is completely unacceptable. We are talking about PEOPLE HERE. Even though lung cancer is the #1 cancer killer of both men and women - it's still the LEAST funded, yes due to the stigma. No one can say "not me." No one. Stop the blame game. Stop the stigma. Help create change.

Heaven got another angel last night.....her name is Jackie Ebel Bodmer. She fought her battle with lung cancer for 20 months.....our hearts are broken, but she is free from pain. We will miss her more than ever, she will be in our hearts forever. Her wish is more funding for lung cancer and early detection screening for lung cancer.....those of us she left behind will honor her by FIGHTING to make sure her wishes are honored. Rest in Peace Jackie Sue!

Dr. Marcus died from the very disease he dedicated his life to - lung cancer. Dr. Frederick Steven Marcus 64, Medical Oncologist, passed away February 28, 2011. A passionate healer, driven to save many lives. He gave hope and inspiration to all. A truly great man! Survived by the love of his life, Keiko Marcus and children Brooke and Hilary and sister Debbie.

Dacey Lee We lost my mom, Kathy L. McGinty, to lung cancer after a brave, 7-year battle. 'The brave never die, though they sleep in dust; their courage nerves a thousand living men." --Minot J. Savage

Cynthia Siegfried so sorry for your loss.

Barbara Dellamarie My beautiful big sister, Diana, died two years ago from lung cancer only 2 months after diagnosis. She was misdiagnosed for four months as having bronchitis. By then it had spread to her brain. We spent a horrible 10 days in the LA County hospital basically waiting for her to pass...she'd fallen into a coma. No chance to say goodbye it happened so fast. A single mom, her daughter was only 19 then. It hurts more all the time. I miss her so much, my best friend. ♥

My Mom, Leslie Lehrman. Stage IV lung cancer. Nope, she never smoked. You don't have to smoke to get lung cancer. Did you know that 80% of people diagnosed with lung cancer today have either never smoked or quit decades ago? #1 cancer killer, least funded. Stigma be GONE. No one deserves lung cancer. www.wtflungcancer...

Feature on using Pinterest for WTF cause.

To see Robb Morris you probably wouldn’t realize that the former All-American swimmer was fighting lung cancer. Though he never smoked, Robb also battles the stigma associated with the disease. Raising awareness about lung cancer is important to the Morris family.
