In our newest Living Room® Short from our April episode all about small cell lung cancer, Danielle shares why she thinks it's so important to get a second opinion.
At your second opinion appointment, consider asking your doctor:
• Do you agree with my current diagnosis and stage?
• What is your experience treating my specific type of lung cancer?
• What treatment options would you recommend and why?
• How do your recommended treatments differ from what's already been suggested?
• What are the benefits and risks of each option?
• How will we know if the treatment is working?
• What side effects should I expect, and how can they be managed?
• Are there clinical trials I should consider?
• Will you communicate directly with my primary oncologist?

It’s okay to admit it: when someone you love is diagnosed with cancer, it can be terrifying. Sometimes, that fear makes us freeze. We worry so much about saying the wrong thing that we end up saying nothing at all.
But as young lung cancer patient Billie Jean Jones beautifully reminds us in our latest Living Room Short: you don't need to have the perfect words; you don't need a grand gesture. As Billie Jean shares, a simple "Hey, I'm thinking about you today" text can mean the world to someone who feels isolated in their diagnosis.
Take a few seconds to listen to her heart and her advice. It might just give you the courage to reach out to that friend who is waiting to hear from you today. 💙📱

In this short clip from Dr. Singhi's Living Room® episode last month, he speaks to the value of patient empowerment and pushes back against the pressure that patients sometimes feel on knowing everything in order to be empowered. He says the real key to a patient feeling empowered is feeling included in their care. Do you agree with this? What's been your experience?
