This series follows the stories of 3 Small Cell Lung Cancer patients and their caregivers. They share the details of their diagnoses, and how they navigated and continue to navigate their cancer journey. Through it all they have learned valuable lessons and have advocated for education and funding for research. They have raised their voices for change and found hope again. Follow these honest stories in this two-part series.
Finding your voice while navigating a cancer diagnosis is not always easy, but self advocacy can be a game changer. Advocating for education, research and funding can drastically change outcomes and often, it is the voices of those who have experienced health disparities first-hand who impact institutional change. Follow the stories of Montessa Lee, Rayanne Lehman and Maida Mangiameli as they share moments of strength, wisdom and advocacy from their journeys with Small Cell Lung Cancer.
While there is still no cure for SCLC, there are new screenings and treatments and new reasons to be hopeful.
