Cancer care often prioritises what can be measured and treated.
But some experiences are harder to quantify.

Intimacy and sexuality are recognised as part of quality of life, yet they are frequently overlooked in care conversations. When these topics remain unspoken, patients and partners may quietly carry questions, worries, or changes they do not know how to raise.

In these moments, communication matters. Not just as a way to find solutions, but as a form of care.

Talking openly can help ease uncertainty, strengthen understanding, and support connection in ways that go beyond treatment alone.

Facing cancer can feel overwhelming and isolating. It doesn’t have to define every moment.

At Survivors Connect 2025, Dr Tanujaa Rajasekaran highlighted how patients continue to live fully despite their diagnoses. Some focused on fitness, travel, and daily adventures. Others embraced love and celebrated meaningful milestones, including a proposal at a Taylor Swift concert. These stories remind us that courage, joy, and hope can continue alongside treatment.

Lung cancer can develop in anyone. Your risk is influenced by a combination of factors, and some have nothing to do with smoking.

From previous radiation therapy to a family history of lung cancer, understanding these risks is key. Early changes often show no symptoms, making detection challenging.

Don’t wait for signs to appear. Stay informed and take proactive steps to check your lung health.

Every breath you take is powered by your lungs.

These vital organs bring oxygen into your body and remove carbon dioxide, supporting every cell, every movement, and every heartbeat. Sometimes, the cells lining your airways can start to grow abnormally. Early changes are often invisible, which makes detection tricky.

Understanding your risks and monitoring your lung health can make all the difference. Take steps today to protect your lungs and prioritize regular check-ups.
