Don sure was a force to be reckoned with! He was well-versed in most aspects of lung cancer and never turned down an opportunity to help someone and was always advocating. And he was just a really nice guy! He will be missed by all who had the pleasure of knowing him.
I am a Stage 4 lung cancer Warrior from Ontario Canada. It is amazing to know that Don reached out to people all over the world including the Untied States, United Kingdom, Canada etc... He is probably the most well known Lung Cancer advocate known all around the world.. I was diagnosed and devastated with the diagnosis in Dec 2018 and only through him have I had the strength to fight the fight and the will to live... He gave me, as many others HOPE...
Yep, that's Don alright! His reach was worldwide!
Don what a great guy!He always answered my questions and told me what to ask Drs..He was the first Lung Cancer Survivior I spoke with in the beginning of my journey and he gave me so much hope!I will miss you Don..
