I was diagnosed w stage 4 #lungcancer in 2022. Five months later I was cancer-free, and still am. As a reporter, I'm not allowed to advocate. Today is LUNG FORCE advocacy day on Cap Hill -- the 10th year people w cancer and loved ones have shared stories. As a patient, thanks. https://t.co/EFty3Giegv
