We also spoke to Carla-Jane Gluckman – Lung Cancer survivor. Carla was diagnosed with lung cancer ten years ago. According to experts, Lung cancer is the most common cancer diagnosed in men and the fourth most common cancer diagnosed in women. November is Lung Cancer Awareness Month and lung cancer patients and survivors are being encouraged to share their stories of the diagnosis and treatment of the disease, and the fact that non-smokers can also be diagnosed. Carla shared her story with us. For more information visit www.lungcancercoalition.org or go to www.mycancer.co.za
