Quoted By:
>In 1999, just outside of Tampa, Florida, a man named Bryan Curtis was diagnosed with stage-four lung cancer. Curtis, 33, had smoked two packs a day for over 20 years. He had only months to live. Bryan decided to become something of anti-smoking campaigner. He enlisted his mum to start contacting Florida's newsrooms, which is how a Tampa Bay Times photographer and journalist ended up at the Curtis house for his final hours. As photos were taken, Bryan slipped into unconsciousness and died later that day, surrounded by family.
