A @uwhealth.bsky.social story shares the importance of early detection for lung cancer. Last year, Dr. Andrea Axtell performed a life-saving procedure on a patient whose lung cancer was detected early. #ExceptionalPeople #ExtraordinaryResults go.wisc.edu/wqo9g3
Early action saves Shannon from lung cancer
Shannon underwent a biopsy and tumor removal surgery under one anesthesia at UW Health and is now lung cancer free.

Every advance in #lungcancer research is more than data - it’s hope for patients and families.

Mark Reale of Takeda reminds us that breakthroughs are measured in the lives they touch.

Hope is the heart of research for people with #lungcancer.

It's why Dr Jessica Lin @massgeneralbrigham.bsky.social says, progress happens when we all come together to push the boundaries of what’s possible.

Let's keep working together to keep hope & progress alive.

No two lung cancers are the same. We may each have lung cancer and be facing the same storm, but we each experience different waves, have different tools, unique experiences. There are many paths. Together we bring more light and hope.
One diagnosis. Five different paths.

@jillfeldman4.bsky.social @yvonnediaz.bsky.social Leah and Samantha remind us that #lungcancer isn't one story.

It's many. It's why we need more research.

It's why we need treatments to be ever more personalised.

Progress in #lungcancer doesn’t happen in isolation.

It takes industry, researchers, clinicians & patient advocates pushing forward together.

Annarita Egidi’s words remind us what can be achieved when we come together.

Katherine, from Houston, TX has been living a full life with ALK+ lung cancer for six years. As a participant in the Brightstar trial, research gave her more time to celebrate birthdays with loved ones—and more birthdays of her own. More Research= More Time. Donate: secure.qgiv.com/event/lcam25...

Hope carried Kathrin when she was diagnosed w stage 4 ALK #lungcancer age 44.

For more days. More memories. More moments with her son.

Today she focuses on the present, celebrates the good days & sets big goals for the future.

Every breakthrough in #lungcancer builds on the work that came before.

Dr Riyaz Shah reminds us that tomorrow's outcomes depend on today's investments. Let's keep research moving forward for better outcomes for patients and families everywhere.

Life-saving treatments don’t happen by chance -they’re built through relentless research. We’re grateful for physician-researchers like Dr Christine Lovly who push science forward.

Progress happens when we stand behind research that saves lives.

So many people will see themselves in Stefanie’s words.

The fear, the love, the strength & the reality that living w #lungcancer is never straightforward.

What makes the difference is community. No one should ever face this alone.

They were storytellers, visionaries, icons.

From Walt Disney to Paul Newman, Betty Grable to Peter Fonda.

Each left a lasting mark on the world.
Each lost their life to #lungcancer.

Lung cancer doesn’t discriminate.
Let's push for better outcomes.

Advances in #lungcancer surgery are promising, but innovation must reach real patients. As Prof Eric Lim says, we need progress in practice, not just trials.

Let’s push for thoughtful access, better outcomes & options for those who could benefit.

Side effects of #lungcancer treatments aren’t always visible, but they’re real & can turn simple tasks into daily battles.

These are just a few from our community. 👇

By talking about the unseen, we build understanding & better care.

Without clinical trials there will be be no new cancer treatments.

Clinical trials are also not necessarily for when you run out of treatment lines. It’s worth asking questions if a clinical trial may be your best option now. Thank you, Laura for demystifying what goes on. Wishing you the best.
Laura joined a clinical trial — and it completely changed her life.

For her, it wasn’t just about treatment, but living better and feeling like herself again.

Fatigue in #lungcancer isn’t just “being tired.” It can feel like your body has turned to stone. It’s invisible to others & overwhelming to live through.

By talking about it, we push for better support, care & understanding.

Research isn’t separate from care - it is care.

Support research. Share stories. Drive change.
