TERMINAL LUNG CANCER 1 MUM 0
My Mum died. She died in Hospital. She spent almost 3 months there. She was diagnosed with TERMINAL LUNG CANCER in October 2007. The last 10 days of her life the cancer progressed from her left lung and started attacking her right lung. Towards the end she was breathing deep and fast trying to get enough oxygen to feed her body's needs. She was on the maximum oxygen setting, supplied through her mask. The left lung collapsed 3 months prior and never regained function. So for 3 months she fought to live using only 1 lung and hospital oxygen. She surprised all the doctors with her tenacity.
Irony...she never smoked. She was however a passive smoker...but less so over the past few years.

Lung cancer is one of the most common cancers.
It went up dramatically in 1950 around the time the automobile became mainstream.
It isn't water vapor one is breathing outside of and inside of a car.
RIP to your mother.
