In 2006, Diana Lindsay, who had never so much as held a cigarette, was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer. It had metastasized to both lungs, her brain and lymph nodes. Keith Eaton, MD, PhD, clinical director of thoracic, head and neck medical oncology at Fred Hutch Cancer Center, told her that a typical patient in this situation would have about nine months to live. But he also observed that she seemed remarkably strong and vital. “He said, ‘You don’t look like my normal lung cancer patient,’” said Lindsay, who had just returned from a business trip to Europe. She was 54 at the time. “He didn’t want to take away the health I had for the limited time I had to live.”
