| Breathing Easy- 8/10/2005 | |
Ten-year-old Alex Roman (left) and 9-year-old Giancarlo Latta, both fourth-graders from Ann Arbor, were part of a program at St. Joseph Mercy Hospital in Ann Arbor called Healthy Hearts 101 that teaches kids around Michigan about the effects of smoking. To help kids understand what happens to the lungs when a person smokes, a pig's lung — it looks a lot like a human's lung — was given chemicals similar to cigarette chemicals. The end result? The pig's lung was gross: black and hard in some places, white and stiff in others. Ewwww. |
