Derailed: cancer in your 20s and 30s
Manage series 3598159
What would you do if you were diagnosed with cancer in your 20s or 30s? How would your life change? How would your friends and family react? Hopefully, you won't have to find out. But whether it’s cancer or something else, we all deal with pain, loss, and uncertainty in our lives.
I'm Eliza Hale, and I'm the creator and host of this podcast. In each episode of Derailed, I'll sit down with someone who was diagnosed with cancer in their 20s or 30s.
My interest in this topic is personal. Four years ago, when I was 27, I was diagnosed with blood cancer. I went through months of treatment, three rounds of egg retrievals and freezing, a bone marrow transplant, and the long recovery that followed. This podcast is my attempt to make sense of what was by far the strangest and hardest year of my life.
This show isn't just for cancer survivors or friends and family of cancer survivors. It's also for anyone who is curious about how we deal with uncertainty and what happens when we confront our own mortality.
