Cheryl's Story of Courage and Caring

Sunday January 4, 2004
Meet Cheryl. She is a normal, middle-aged woman with a husband, children, and even a few grandchildren. In early November, 2003, Cheryl was diagnosed with small cell lung cancer. She now walks a path she fervently wishes noone ever had to.

In Cheryl's Story, she shares with us just what having lung cancer is like, and how quickly it has changed her world. "It's harder to have cancer than it is to quit smoking." It is Cheryl's hope that by sharing her story, she will encourage people to quit smoking and stay that way.
