More than 53 million Americans act as family caregivers who often fall below the radar, sacrificing everything in the name of compassion, empathy, and love.
Caregiver Lifehacks amplifies the voices of those impacted by a loved one’s diagnosis who may be hungry to connect with others and share information. These authentically candid interviews provide a look at the vulnerable act of providing care for a loved one.
Host Elura Nanos uses her no-BS conversational style to provide a home for the often unspoken thoughts and feelings of the caregiver experience. As a fiercely intelligent and radically compassionate lawyer and media professional, she knows the caregiver path all too well.

“Get your affairs in order” was the advice from one ER doctor to Rayanne Lehman upon seeing her chest X-Ray. That was 4 years ago. When Maida Mangiameli received her Small Cell Lung Cancer diagnosis she wanted to live to know her newborn grandchild and that child is now 6 years old. And for patient Montessa Lee, her Small Cell Lung Cancer (SCLC) diagnosis 16 years ago has led her to a lifetime of advocacy work for lung cancer research, funding and education along with a commitment to being a voice for the voiceless.
These lung cancer success stories are not only hopeful but through their journeys, these three patients and their caregivers have gathered a wealth of information and insight to share with others.
