This is Lung Cancer
This November, we celebrating real people thriving with lung cancer. Because lung cancer looks very different today – and it’s time people knew it.

Alex’s story
When Alex heard the words “lung cancer,” his mind immediately went to his children. Seeing them grow up mattered more than anything else.
Now, nearly three years on, Alex is cancer-free and is enjoying what he calls his “annoyingly normal” life: taxiing his two kids to endless sports clubs, cheering them on at every match, and even taking on the London Marathon.
Gloria’s story
Gloria’s cancer was everywhere — her lung, liver, lymph nodes, adrenal gland, bones, and brain. Doctors told her, without treatment, she had just three months to live.
But Gloria defied the odds. Three years later, and off active treatment since May 2024, her cancer is stable and still shrinking.
