Dealing with cancer is a very challenging battle that no one deserves to go through. Cancer can affect not only your physical health but also your mental well-being. Living with it may not only give you depression and distress, but it can also cause struggles that impact life in general.
As a parent, seeing your child suffering from cancer or any other illness is the most heartbreaking experience. Witnessing their pain doubles the amount of emotional pain we feel to a point where we’d rather be in their position instead.
In this episode, we will talk about the bravery amidst the suffering of a little kid named Pio, who was diagnosed with a very rare disease at the age of five. We have with us Dr. Arthur Gallo, Dr. David Purger, and Dr. Jay Nathan to help us understand Clival Chordoma and how this can be treated. Listen to Episode 37 to learn more!
