Matt McAvin / ALK Positive 2023
I was diagnosed with stage 4 ALK-positive lung cancer in 2022, at the age of 49. I didn't know that anyone with lungs can get lung cancer, so the diagnosis came as a shock. About 70,000 people around the world are diagnosed with ALK-positive lung cancer every year, and most have no risk factors. As of today, there is no cure. Fortunately for all of us, cancer research is moving at a fast pace.
With more research funding we may be able to extend the lives of those with ALK-positive lung cancer, and someday find a cure.
