Tatiana Prowell: … how much she has given to the lung cancer community

Tatiana Prowell shared a post by Ivy Elkins, Co-Founder of EGFR Resisters, on X/Twitter, adding:

Medicine is the best job and science will win. Anyone who has ever had the privilege of working with Ivy Elkins knows how much she has given to the lung cancer patient advocacy community in those years. Congrats on the milestone, friend!”

Quoting Ivy Elkins’s post:

10 years ago on 12/26, I was diagnosed with stage IV EGFR+ lung cancer. I’m still here thanks to research and making memories with my family!”
