Non-Smokers With Lung Cancer Get Double Whammy

An interesting psychological reaction happens to non-smokers who develop lung cancer. It occurs over and over again. When told someone has breast cancer friends often say, “How sad! Is there anything we can do to help?” But when informed a person has lung cancer, the first response is “Was he or she a smoker?” The remark often stigmatizes non-smokers afflicted with this disease.

Dana Reeves, the widow of former actor Christopher Reeves (Superman), who has never smoked, recently announced she has been diagnosed with lung cancer. It’s a frightful tragedy for a young woman who dedicated so many years to help her stricken husband. But her plight has made everyone aware that non-smokers develop lung cancer more often than suspected.
