Even though over 11 million Americans are diagnosed with COPD, awareness is still shockingly low. We are ever so thankful to Leonard Nimoy’s family for sharing his journey with COPD. This is an important step in raising more awareness of third leading cause of death in the United States.

Leonard’s millions of fans were not aware, until very near the end of his life, that he was suffering from COPD . . . Like his iconic alter ego, “Mr. Spock”, Leonard endured in stoic silence but broke that silence to passionately warn others of the dangers of smoking.
