Lung Cancer Free

One Couple's Journey Through a "Lungs in a Box" Double Lung Transplant

De: Lori Friesen, Keith Zafren

Narrado por: Dr. Lori Friesen

Imagine waking up with a cough that just won’t go away. Concerned, you visit your doctor, who delivers the news: it’s stage-4 lung cancer, and there isn't anything they can do.

The biggest cancer killer worldwide today is lung cancer (more than all other cancers combined). Until lung cancer develops into the last stage, it's largely without symptoms. It is an unforgiving, silent killer. For those lucky enough to catch it early, surgery, chemotherapy, and/or radiotherapy are the options. All of which may slow the progression of the disease but rarely cure it. For the vast majority, a lung cancer diagnosis is a death sentence.

Until now.

In “Lung Cancer Free” Dr. Lori Friesen and Keith Zafren share their journey from the shock of her husband’s initial diagnosis, through surgery and chemo, to the point where he was dying, being sustained on supplemental oxygen just to keep breathing, to where they are today: Keith is alive, breathing easily and freely with beautiful, healthy lungs.

He is completely cancer-free!

This book is a beacon of hope for those living with or affected by a lung cancer diagnosis. Grab it now and find out how this disease may not have to be a death sentence after all.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“Every time I look at Keith Zafren’s surveillance CT scan, I still remain amazed and in awe. For the first time ever, we can offer lung-limited stage-four lung cancer patients the hope of becoming cancer-free through our transplantation program (DREAM). This book tells the miraculous story.” (Young Kwang Chae, MD, MPH, MBA Lead Oncologist, Lung Transplant Team Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine)

Life changing! Must read inspirational story

Amazing and inspiring story ! I heard the story at a lecture series at Northwestern Medicine over a year ago .. the audience, myself included , was just speechless when Dr Bharat explained the dream protocol .. I then had the extreme pleasure of becoming Keith and Lori’s new primary care physician here in Florida.. their story is nothing short of a miracle.. their story changed the way I practice medicine! A story that will make you laugh and cry , but most importantly, will give you hope !! The future of medicine is exciting and life changing!
As a practicing physician in Florida , I realize the limitations of medicine in various parts of the country.. this makes me want to work harder to provide better care for my patients..
