Looking To Talk To People Who Have more Than One Cancer

[JoelT]

Hi all,

I am looking for people who have been diagnosed with more than one cancer. I am also looking for anyone who is or has been a caretaker for a person who has been diagnosed with more than one cancer.

Please reply to my either in this group or privately at [e-mail]

Thanks,

Joel

I am not sure if this is what you are looking for but; about 15 years ago I had basil cell skin cancer, a year later squamous cell skin cancer. Five years ago I had squamous cell lung cancer stage 2, and 5 weeks ago squamous cell lung cancer (different lung) stage 1a.

Hi Katherine,

Thank you so much for the reply.

I am going to be launching a new Cancer ABCs project that is going to emphasize thriving despite having multiple cancer dxs. I want to start the project with a number of podcast interviews with people who do have multiple cancers.

I would concentrate the interview by exploring their story, moving on to their reaction to having these Dxs, then how they dealt with them, how treatment choices were made, where support was found, how the medical team was put together and used, etc.

I would love to do one of these podcasts with you. I will edit it for clarity and to cut out the many umms and other extraneous things we all say in our normal course of speech.

The interview would last for one hour or less. I would send you a rough outline of the questions I would ask to give you an idea of where we will be going. You could give me an feedback in changes you would want as well suggest things that I might forget.

I hope tat you will join me in this project. We can talk on the phone if you wish.

Joel

If I can help someone else in their cancer journey, I would be honored.

However, if you are looking for people currently fighting cancer, I am currently cancer free. I had to lose 2 lobes, but I am cancer free.
