Every year I begin my appeal by posting this picture of Tammy with Mira and Max taken at the 2017 Lung Force Walk in NYC. It is so significant to our family because it epitomizes hope.
Hope is the key word in my appeal this year. In the 7 years since this picture was taken the American Lung Association has made great strides towards improving early detection and advanced medications.
This year Mira (now 17) is chairing Team 'Moving Forward' with Max (now 19) assisting her.
As much as this appeal is about raising funds for the American Lung Association it is also about raising awareness of your lifestyle and the need timely medical checkups. We hope you take the time to peruse the educational information on this site's pages. It could save someone's life.
In the past your contributions have made a difference in the lives of people impacted by lung disease. We are asking you to again step up. Thanks to your previous donations a new "Low Dose CT Scan" has been developed for high risk persons as well as new medical breakthroughs. More people than ever are now surviving lung cancer.
Your donation and participation will continue to help support the American Lung Association's research, leading to early detection and better treatments that give everyone an improved outlook.
We hope you will support our efforts and continue to save lives. Please donate today.
Be a part of the FORCE and 'Moving Forward' to defeat lung cancer and lung disease one step at a time
