  • 23:30: You're my age, how do you have cancer?
  • 24:25: What is the one thing you wish you'd known at the very beginning of your cancer journey?
  • 25:43: Any time somebody asked me how I was doing, I was, like, I'm fine.
  • 26:20: I wish I would've known to be more proactive in my mental health.
