In the lead-up to Lung Cancer Awareness Month this November, the ‘future face’ of women’s cancer is being revealed. While new data published last month by Cancer Research UK suggests the number of women dying from breast cancer in the UK is in decline – expected to drop almost 30 percent by 2030 – the number of women dying from lung cancer is on the increase.
Liz Darlison, Macmillan Consultant Nurse Specialist, University Hospitals of Leicester, says, “While the statistics paint a frightening picture, there’s a great deal that can be done to help ensure women are diagnosed earlier, treated earlier and live longer. By raising awareness of the tell-tale signs – for example, a persistent cough that lasts longer than three weeks – there’s the potential to save thousands of lives every year.”

Do you have debts that you want to get rid of? Are you thinking about debt management credit counseling? If so, then stop, step back and think. It pays to consider debt management but you must be well - informed so that you can do it wisely. Do not get easily enticed with credit counselors saying that they are a non – profit company and that they will not charge you a penny when in fact, they will be asking you for some sort of registration fee later on which is about 9% up to 17% of your outstanding debt.
Come to think of it! You pay them “cash” so they get profit from you but still they are saying that they are a non – profit organization. Why is this so? Simple – They just want to avoid the payment of taxes. But whether or not they are non – profit companies, the real question is, do they really help eliminate debts??? More often than not, they don’t work so why bother? Don’t just waste all your hard earned money paying for something that will not make all your debts and worries bearable.
Instead, consider Plan B. Plan B is a debt elimination program which makes a great alternative to credit counseling simply because it works! It works by helping you reduce your credit card debts by as much as 80% while protecting your assets, income, and savings from being taken away from you because of your debts. More importantly, Plan B also protects against credit card lawsuits, stops annoying collection calls and keeps all your debts at bay until you can already afford to repay them. All these are 110% Guaranteed for a very affordable cost so why won’t you give it a try?
