Interesting. I'm seeing more and more comparisons of funding and PR for breast cancer vs that for lung and other cancers. Lung cancer so far seems to be the stepchild for research funding, which means the early diagnosis and survival rates haven't changed much in some 50 years. I would like to see that change. Part of the problem is there aren't enough survivors to get the story out there. And the survivors that are speaking out aren't getting the press that breast cancer survivors are. It's sad that this is the state of things in the 21st century.
