In this session, learn about how they went about choosing laughter as the best medicine to manage their cancer fight.

Survivorship and beating Cancer is the most wonderful gift and privilege, but quickly became one of the greatest challenges for this young couple. PTSD, depression, and anxiety while still trying to fight for their future, including a family, were just a few of the demons on their post-cancer doorstep.

Following her husband’s devasting cancer diagnosis and looking for hope and guidance, she couldn’t find what she was looking for and set out to document and share their cancer experience in the hopes of giving back to a young adult cancer community. From the diagnosis, through treatment and ultimately survivorship, 128 Days and Counting gives you a raw look at the monster that is cancer.
