Behind a young adult facing #lungcancer, there’s often someone holding them up. For @Janclarkgirls, whose daughter Amy was diagnosed at 20, success means seeing Amy work, travel, hike & more. To every care partner who carries someone this, we see you. #StoriesOfLungCancer #LCAM25

Progress in #lungcancer happens when we refuse to accept today’s limits as tomorrow’s reality.

Who gets ALK+ lung cancer? Anyone can.
Often young, active, and healthy.
Median age: 52
Half diagnosed between 20–50
All backgrounds, worldwide.
If you have lungs, you can get lung cancer.
Awareness leads to earlier answers — and more time.

When Carla was diagnosed with stage IV ALK+ lung cancer, her daughter was just 1 year old.
Seeing her start first grade felt impossible — but research made it happen.
