Radon – Lung Cancer: It’s Not Just from Smoking!

What Is radon? You can’t smell or see radon. It’s an odorless, colorless gas that is the second-leading cause of lung cancer in the U.S. If you’re unsure whether your home has a high level of radon, it’s time to find out if your house is among the estimated 1 in 15 with a dangerous level of the cancer-causing radioactive gas, which is estimated to claim 21,000 lives a year in this country. See the article at here for information about radon detection, prevention and remediation.  Check out the newsletter from Jeanne and Russ Spriggs for more interesting and useful information.  These two professionals are always ready to answer your questions and make you feel like you are visiting with your friends and neighbors while they do it.    The Cancer Relay for Life will begin at 6 pm on Friday, June 12, 2009 at the Bonner County Fairgrounds in Sandpoint, Idaho.   You can support us by visiting our Relay for Life site.
