This fact has always hit me hard: lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer deaths among women and men. Each year, more people die of lung cancer than of colon, breast, and prostate cancers combined. It's time to change this statistic.

I spend my time as a PA caring for patients with lung cancer. I am repeatedly overwhelmed with inspiration as I watch patients and their families persist through their battle and for some, am fortunate to witness their years extended. While those days allow me to leave clinic with more hope, there are also the days of defeat, loss and sadness. The days when patients are out of options, and I watch families experience true heartbreak. Because of the latter, research and lung health awareness are more important than ever.
