If you smoke now or ever did, this is really important:

A new article from Harold Wimmer with the American Lung Association highlights how a low-dose CT scan can catch lung cancer early — even when you feel fine. It’s quick, painless, and could save your life.

High-risk people — current or former smokers, especially those 50-80 years old with a 20-pack-/year history — are strongly encouraged to get screened.

Let’s not wait for symptoms. Early detection means better outcomes. Talk to your doctor, see if you’re eligible, and please share this so others know.

The procedure is quick, painless and noninvasive. Over the last decade, it has saved 80,000 years of life.

Earlier this month, our amazing former patient Joslyn Washington traveled to Washington, D.C. for Respiratory Advocacy Day (RAD) to speak up for people living with chronic respiratory diseases and cancer. 🫁💙

Joslyn shared her story and advocated for:

✅ CDC funding
✅ Affordable healthcare
✅ The SOARS Act (supporting supplemental oxygen, respiratory equipment, and treatments)
✅ Expanded access to respiratory therapy in underserved areas

She spoke directly with Congress and House members, helping raise awareness about the vital role of pulmonary therapy. Many were surprised to learn just how important respiratory care is—and now, thanks to voices like Joslyn’s, more lawmakers are informed and ready to act!

👏 We’re so proud of Joslyn for using her experience to make a real difference.

Together, we can help ensure better access, funding, and support for everyone battling respiratory conditions.
