November News

We’re kicking off Lung Cancer Awareness Month with Shine a Light!

Shine a Light is the largest lung cancer awareness event in the United States. This event brings together members of the community who have been touched by lung cancer.

Every year, more men and women die of lung cancer than any other cancer type. This is due in part to the fact that “only 16 percent of lung cancer cases are diagnosed at an early stage” (American Lung Association). Screening for individuals who are deemed “high-risk” for developing lung cancer would lead to more early stage diagnoses and less diagnoses that are in later stages.

Radiation oncologist Dr. Chris McClinton of Highlands Oncology Group will speak on current lung cancer treatments and future possibilities for diagnosing and treating the disease. We’ll also hear from special guest and local lung cancer survivor Sherrie Hayes.

Join us Thursday, November 9 at Hope Cancer Resources to raise lung cancer awareness as we honor those impacted by the disease. Help us shine a light.

When:
Thursday, November 9
6-7:30 p.m.

Where:
Hope Cancer Resources
5835 W. Sunset Avenue
Springdale, AR 72762
