Joseph Neale can tell you a thing or two about lung cancer stigma, but if you’re really lucky, he’ll tell you through song. Joseph was just 20-years-old when he developed a dry, persistent cough. At first, a chest X-ray suggested pneumonia, but then a CT scan indicated the unthinkable: lung cancer. Surgery was the young singer-songwriter’s best shot at survival. But would removing two-thirds of his right lung impact his voice or his positive outlook on life? Hear it in his o...wn words in the video below.

Amy Michelle Alain should have turned 40-years-old on September 28, the same day that we began educating Canadians about lung cancer stigma. But Amy never had the chance to blow those candles out, or celebrate the milestone with her husband Phil and their two young children. Don’t ask Phil whether his wife smoked. Ask whether early detection could have saved Amy’s life and allowed them to grow old together. Ask why lung cancer is too often diagnosed when it’s too late for cur...ative treatment. #thewrongquestion #partnership Lung Cancer Canada To help us end the stigma please learn more and donate at: https://bit.ly/2G4rNP6
