This week's artwork was donated by Amanda, a pediatric cancer patient who received treatment at The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia . Cigarettes have bad things in them like tobacco and nicotine. Cigarettes can give you black lungs and lung cancer.
Lung cancer is a kind of cancer that starts from cigars and cigarettes.
Lung cancer happens when you smoke. Your lungs get black and your rate of having lung cancer and a heart attack increases when you smoke cigarettes and cigars. There is another problem with smoking called second-hand smoke . Second-hand smoke is when you breathe in smoke from someone else's cigarette or cigar. If friends or family smoke around you, and you breathe the smoke in, then you have an increased risk of getting cancer.
