Day 18: Gail Lemaire, Lung Cancer Survivor
"I have 30% lung capacity and I'm still laughing my head off!"

Gail, what is your connection with lung cancer?
�I am a survivor of lung cancer five separate times over the past 23 years. I have also had breast cancer twice, and thyroid cancer twice.� Gail is also an advocate for others with lung cancer.

�First, I have the most unbelievable husband in the world. He is there for me every minute of every day. It seems doubtful that I could have made it through all of these difficult illnesses - cancer, surgery, treatments, and thousands of tests, etc., without his love and support. Next, I believe in the power of positive thinking. I want to LIVE my life, because I am the luckiest, most blessed, happiest, most contented woman you could ever meet! I�m thankful for every minute of every day that I�m alive. Also, God keeps me here for some purpose, and I�m still trying to figure out what that is.
