All other lung cancer types are collectively called non-small cell lung cancer. Non-small cell lung cancer consists of a heterogeneous group of lung cancer with mainly three sub types: adeno carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and large cell carcinoma. Even though the non-small cell comprises of different cell types, they usually show a similar behavior and are mostly treated in a similar way. Following is a break up of sub-types of non-small cell lung cancer. Adenocarcinoma (40% of all lung cancers), squamous cell type (30% of all lung cancers), large cell type (10% of all lung cancers).

A new case, of lung cancer, is diagnosed approximately every 2 minutes and a grim 5-year survival rate of only 14% exists, there is a deep need for an urgent response. Our mission was to make sure no other family felt the way we had the day mom was DX. A family full of fear and outrage because their mother, sister, daughter, wife did not have medical insurance. A family wrecked by the recent (or not so) economy. Ours maybe not so different from YOURS. A FAMILY READY to make a change.

But we know we'll be together again..
Jeff Pawluk
Personal account about her son who fought a brave battle with lung cancer.
http://marta652002.tripod.com/JeffPawluk.htm

Extractions: Jeffrey Arthur Pawluk August 4, 1956 - January 18, 2000 "When you lose a parent, you lose part of your past, when a spouse dies, you have lost the present, but when you lose a child, you lose part of your future" I have often heard it said that as long as you remember your loved one, they will never die. I would like this page to be a place where anyone that knew and loved my son, Jeff, can learn more about him and his much too short life. Jeff was born in a hospital in Flushing, New York. As large a baby as he was, 8 lbs 11 oz, the birth was easy. When he was born I looked at this baby as a miracle, first I had ever experienced. I thought, "how can anyone ever doubt that there is a God when it is possible to create a child like this." He was perfect in every way. He was big boned so we all knew Jeff would grow up to be a big man. We lived in New York the first seven years of Jeff's life and then moved to Fort Lauderdale, Florida along with our two younger daughters, Linda and Wendy. Jeff was always sick during the winter months suffering from Asthmatic Bronchitis and always on the verge of Pneumonia. The doctor said if he was his child, he would move to a warmer climate....and that is why we decided to move to Florida. Strange, but after we made our move, Jeff never had any problems in that area all the years of growing up in Fort Lauderdale. When Jeff finished his second hitch in the Navy, he came home and tried working the restaurant business. He had developed three very bad habits during his time in the service, which were smoking, drinking and coffee. I was concerned about how all these habits could affect his future life but I knew Jeff was a big boy and would have to make his own decisions. Being in the restaurant business didn't help him to give up the cigarettes or the drinking. It wasn't long before he realized that this was not what he wanted to do with his life which is why he decided to make an effort to go back to school. He looked into many colleges and decided he would make a geographic move and then maybe things would get better for him. He enrolled in the University of Alaska in Juneau, Alaska.
Passive Smoking Does Cause Lung Cancer
The World Health Organization (WHO) sets the record straight secondhand smoke causes lung cancer in non-smokers.
http://www.who.int/inf-pr-1998/en/pr98-29.html

Extractions: Press Release WHO/29 9 March 1998 PASSIVE SMOKING DOES CAUSE LUNG CANCER DO NOT LET THEM FOOL YOU The World Health Organization (WHO) has been publicly accused of suppressing information. Its opponents say that WHO has withheld from publication its own report that was aimed at but supposedly failed to scientifically prove that there is an association between passive smoking, or environmental tobacco smoke (ETS), and a number of diseases, lung cancer in particular. Both statements are untrue. The study in question is a case-control study on the effects of ETS on lung cancer risk in European populations, which has been carried out over the last seven years by 12 research centres in 7 European countries under the leadership of WHO's cancer research branch the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC). The results of this study, which have been completely misrepresented in recent news reports, are very much in line with the results of similar studies both in Europe and elsewhere: passive smoking causes lung cancer in non-smokers.
