This is why we are patient advocates: We are experts in our lung cancer disease re QOL, Financial Toxicity, Unmet Needs, etc. Researchers & oncologists need to start listening to us. Working together, we can find better treatments faster. Summer Farmen

Fears of progression are always there for those of us on #lungcancer targeted therapies - lurking in the background - no matter how well they’re working today. Great presentation by Dr Eric K. Singhi, MD on the how, why & things to do. Research and new options can’t come fast enough.

100% reality- cancer impacts the lives of the whole family. I wish it was a burden I could protect mine from, but sadly it is not. I hope your Plan A is a go Narjust Florez, MD, FASCO but love that you have a b and c. We are all so fortunate to have you in our corner!
