Abstract
Having a better understanding of the emotions that African Americans go through on their lung cancer journey is necessary to be able to provide holistic care. Cultural sensitivity and understanding are key concepts woven throughout nursing curricula to increase quality of care. In the discipline of nursing it is uncommon to find artwork that illustrates the emotions that individuals go through on their lung cancer journey. The purpose of this project is to expose the emotions of a lung cancer diagnosis through the arts.
