Want to learn more about lung cancer? Great! In addition to the online info that’s available (see our Lung Cancer Resources page), there are some worthwhile books … not as many as for other types of cancers, though; yet another confirmation of the invisibility of lung cancer.
The National Lung Cancer Partnership provides a linked book list. They will receive a portion of the purchase price of any goods purchased from Amazon when linking from their site. (Note: if you use the AdBlock Plus extension in Firefox, you won’t be able to see the book names and details – I configured my ABP to unblock that page only.)
One book I highly recommend which isn’t on the NLCP list: lung cancer survivor Lori Hope’s excellent “Help Me Live: 20 Things People With Cancer Want You To Know”.
Thanks to a kind offer from a good friend, our LCcure CafePress store is being revitalized. Two new items have already been added, featuring our custom-designed DISCover A Cure logo at left:
- DISCover A Cure Sigg Water Bottle 1.0L
- DISCover A Cure Ceramic Travel Mug
Using them helps raise awareness of the need for lung cancer research. And remember that 100% of the proceeds for anything bought through this or our Zazzle store go directly to 501c3 non-profit LUNGevity to fund lung cancer research!
As the next step towards increasing awareness of the need for research, we are considering migrating our static lccure.org website to WordPress (self-hosted or here on wordpress.com). This site creation is the first step.
