November, Lung Cancer Awareness month

The month of November was declared by the Global Lung Cancer Coalition the "Lung Cancer awareness month." An important campaign dedicated to increasing attention to lung cancer issues often overlooked by the media because of its close correlation with the smoking habit. But Lung cancer is the leading cancer killer in both men and women in the United States and every year kills 35 000 people in Italy and over one million worldwide.

During this month WALCE tried to disseminate nationwide information on the disease, providing a toll-free number. Then supported a make-up program in seven Italian medical Oncology Divisions for women with cancer to improve their self-esteem, and manage their treatment with greater confidence.
