Abstract
I'll be doing a Choose Your Own Adventure: Where it is an interactive story where the participants make health decisions that ultimately affect their health, quality of life, and mortality. My project will be on lung cancer, a cancer that occurs in the lungs and is mostly caused by smoking. Lung cancer is the second most common cancer in both men and women. Some symptoms can be a cough, chest pain, wheezing, and weight loss. Some risk factors are people who smoke, people who have family history of lung cancer, and people who are exposed to radon and are in areas with heavy air pollution. The goal of my project is to show how different things can cause lung cancer and can show what you can do differently to prevent from getting it.
