""Shira's story is one of courage, awareness, and the power of acting before it's too late.""--Tony Robbins, #1 New York Times bestselling author and the world's #1 life & business strategist ""Shira's experiences is one that too many people have gone through.

Her riveting story should be grasped by all."" --Dr. Mehmet Oz, nationally recognized thoracic surgeon and President Trump's Head of Medicare and Medicaid ""As a physician and chief medical officer, nothing makes me happier than helping our patients.

We are excited to amplify her story and work together to save more lives.""--Jonathan Swerdlin, cofounder and CEO of Function Health ""With the rise of early onset cancers, there needs to be a reconsideration of conventional screening guidelines and an expansion of the definition of 'high risk.' 'Early detection saves lives' is a mantra we live by in medicine; it is incumbent on the medical community as well as policy makers to ensure that we are capturing as many survivable cancers as possible.""--Dr. Natalie Azar, medical contributor for NBC News and assistant clinical professor of medicine and rheumatology at NYU Langone ""In this deeply personal and moving memoir, Shira Boehler shares her journey through a shocking, unexpected diagnosis of lung cancer, shattering the myth that this disease affects only smokers, men, and older people. This invaluable book, animated by her powerful advocacy, provides a critical call to action for more widely available early detection methods, the urgent need to focus on understudied sex differences in the disease, and increased public awareness. Her message: Scientific research, cutting-edge technology, and expanded screening will save lives.""--Susan Blumenthal, MD, First Deputy Assistant Secretary for Women's Health and Former US Assistant Surgeon General
