I want to send a huge THANK YOU to all the #Eagles fans who have contributed to our @HailBBQ Crew @LUNGevity fundraiser in the fight against lung cancer. Before Championship weekend, we had raised $8.5K. After the now infamous @HardRock Ted video which, for the record, I didn’t film or even know was being recorded we’ve surpassed $26K! The majority of those donations have come from 🦅 fans. [Donate Here: bit.ly/hailbbqlungcan…] I know this might not sit well with some of my fellow Burgundy and Gold fanmily, but let’s be real not all Eagles fans are bad. Over the weekend, I met some incredible people, and this fundraiser proves that there are plenty more out there. Let’s not judge an entire fan base based on a few loud bad apples. Unfortunately, showing kindness to opposing fans doesn’t go viral negativity does. Just look at the video claiming I left the game early, which has racked up over 2 million views. For the record, I was just heading to the bathroom and stayed for the fireworks at the end of the game. To those still flooding my social media with trash talk keep it coming! Clearly, I live rent-free in your heads. When I come back next season, just make sure my guest room is ready. I want to thank @PFTCommenter & @BarstoolBigCat for the mentions on @PardonMyTake & for not going to hard at me. I also want to thank @Christie_Ileto at @6abc for taking the time to speak with me and helping spread the word that Philadelphia fans are good people. I'm looking forward to going back to the Linc next season. I'll see you all at the Hard Rock Sat night before our game. "Let’s take that place over again!" 1st rd of Philly tap waters are on me. Good luck in the Super Bowl and Go Chiefs!

Enjoyed putting this presentation together for the @LUNGevity Minority Mentorship and Training Program on How to Assemble an Effective Mentoring Committee or How to Build Your Own Personal Board of Directors. While I look back, I realized how challenging it can be to find mentors as a #minorityinmedicine when there is no one at the top that looks like you. #mentoringmatters #networking #careerdevelopment #minoritiesinmedicine #diversityinmedicine #MedTwitter @EugeneManley

PLEASE RT: I need help from the #lcsm community @Aetna, pls approve my onc’s 2nd appeal for #selumetinib for the TRIM 24 BRAF fusion that is driving my #lungcancer progression. I have received 2 prior denials What’s the use of #biomarker testing if I can’t get the drug I need🧵

A huge thank you to Dr Upal Basu-Roy for his careful attention to words & not using labels. Being defined by your smoking status is dehumanizing & demeaning to who we are as people. Here's a link to @IASLC language guide bit.ly/3A3n5Km #LCSM #WCLC22
LUNGevity Foundation@LUNGevity

Our own Dr Basu-Roy is back up at the podium talking about lung cancer in those w/out tobacco exposure: breaking it down by demographics & biology, driving it back that in those w/out exposure lung cancer will discriminate based on where you live & occupational exposure #wclc22

Patients face new realities (new dx & progression), have to make difficult Rx decisions w/little room for error but struggle w/whether survival is worth risk of side effects & how it will impact their/families life (physical, logistical, psycho/social, financial) #WCLC22 #LCSM
LUNGevity Foundation@LUNGevity

Thanks , Dr. Lavinia Magee @RoyalPapworth for bringing the patient perspectuve. And THANK YOU, @IASLC and #WCLC22 for including this imp topic and dedicating a plenary. And thank you @jillfeldman4 for reminding us tolerability is relative. #LCSM @EGFRResisters
