November is both Lung Cancer Awareness Month and National Family Caregivers Month. According to the American Cancer Society, lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death among men and women.
In the edition of In The Author's Voice, WSIU's Jeff Williams talks with Anita Logsdon, a treatment suite nurse with Oncology Hematology Care; and Katie Brown, Vice President for Support and Survivorship Programs with LUNGevity, a lung-cancer research and advocacy group about the disease and its impact on society.
