Addie Posted August 6, 2005 Share Posted August 6, 2005 You did it!! You humanized all of us, Lisa...putting a face to those with lung cancer even if we also are former smokers. Thank you for showing the world the emotions of being whacked with lung cancer, no matter the cause...which sometimes has nothing to do with smoking. It was a good piece on this stinking disease and you were wonderful...and your darling little daughter is the spitting image of you! I hope such bits on the news will continue and also that $$$ going into l.c. research will someday match that going into breast cancer research. Hooray for our very own STAR, the incredible Lisa O!! Well done!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ginnyde Posted August 6, 2005 Share Posted August 6, 2005 I just emailed ABC news and thanked them for the coverage. Can't hurt if we all do it. And as I said in my other post, Lisa you are our first TV star and you did a great job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Treebywater Posted August 6, 2005 Share Posted August 6, 2005 twiddling my thumbs here on the west coast waiting for news time. I Can't wait to see it, Lisa! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SDianneB Posted August 7, 2005 Share Posted August 7, 2005 Lisa, that was amazing. Thank you SO very much for doing this. I'm also writing ABC to thank them -- maybe they won't forget. Di Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gail p-m Posted August 7, 2005 Share Posted August 7, 2005 Just finished watching Lisa on the West Coast. What a wonderful job she did putting a face to this disease. I think it was a good report esp. getting it to compare how many more women are lost to this disease than breast, ovarian... cancer combined. And what a family she has. She is so loved by her husband and gorgeous daughter. Thank you Lisa for getting lung cancer such good exposure. Bet people were shocked to hear how many non-smoking women get this disease. Well- done. gail p-m Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geri Posted August 7, 2005 Share Posted August 7, 2005 Watched it, taped it and will watch it again! Lisa you did a marvelous job of humanizing a dreadful disease. You, your husband and daughter showed us what it's all about. Thanks for putting a face forward for women with lung cancer. Geri Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
