LARYNGECTOMY
Individuals who have had laryngectomies due to throat cancer speak to
students about the dangers of tobacco use and the impact such use has had on
their lives. Students often feel that
cancer could not happen to them. Many
have never met a cancer patient and few can identify with the horrors of
tobacco use. Because the media has had such
an impact on the youth today, often it is the particularly unique which catches
their attention. It is difficult to
ignore this presentation. Students will
then be recruited for cessation groups following the presentation.
