In Loving memory of  Harriet J. Silverthorn
In March of 1991, I lost my mother to one of Americas largest killers "CANCER", and without an understanding this can be a very devastating thing.  In the late 1980's she was diagnosed with lung cancer.  I have found some excellent information for your enlightenment.
Thanks
