Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death among both men and women. That is why this year I am once again working with the American Lung Association and the LUNG FORCE Run/Walk Event to raise funds to fight lung cancer and all lung diseases. Raising funds to wipe out this awful disease has made a huge difference in treatment and survival rates.  Thanks to your past donations, new targeted treatments have emerged through valuable research funded through the American Lung Association. Let's continue this effort and wipe out lung cancer as the leading cause of cancer death.

I take this very seriously as I have lost precious family members to this disease. My brother, Paul lost his life to lung cancer in 2012, when he was just 62, gone much too soon. My mother passed away from lung cancer at age 76 in 2003. I miss both of them. This is my way of helping to  increase successful treatments, save lives, and give patients and family members hope. I hope you will join me in this endeavor.

Together, with your help, we will walk to raise awareness and funds to defeat lung cancerand all lung diseases and raise our voices for lung health.

That's why I have decided to participate in the LUNG FORCE Run/Walk. When you join the American Lung Association and LUNG FORCE in the fight against lung cancer and for lung health, you join us in our mission to improve lives--and save lives.

Your donation and participation will help make a difference in the lives that desperately need it. To support my efforts, and to help save lives today, please donate now.

Together, we are a FORCE to be reckoned with!

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!
