In Sickness and In Health Caregiver Lifehacks: CLL Edition

    • Documentary

In a frank and candid conversation, two devoted husbands share the challenges and rewards of caring for their wives in different stages of Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia or CLL. Relationships are tough on their best days, but it can add a whole new range of challenges when the person you love is battling cancer. Meet Scott Fuller and Ted Walsh, who talk candidly about their failures and successes as caregivers to their wives who have CLL. Ted Walsh lives in the Raleigh, Durham area of North Carolina and works in the biomedical industry. Ted found out that his wife Laura had CLL just three months before their wedding date. Laura is currently in what's known in the CLL world as the "watch and wait" phase -- often known to folks on the inside as "watch and worry." Our other guest is Scott Fuller from Trophy Club, Texas, where he's the director of golf course maintenance at a country club. Scott has been married for 32 years to his wife Christina, who was diagnosed with CLL in 2018. Christina has recently begun treatment and is participating in a clinical trial at UT Southwestern. Both Scott and Ted are two extraordinary men who are partners in their wives' CLL journey. Caregiver Lifehacks is a production of OffScrip Health. For more information visit https://offscrip.com
