Continuing our Survivor Series with inspiration for young people with cancer and anyone who knows someone facing a scary diagnosis. I used to say I avoided the “tilted head” friends, the ones who looked at me with big eyes and a sad face because they just didn’t know how to act when they saw me. And years later I have much more compassion for that and even recognize my own struggles with knowing exactly what to do and say sometimes when someone you know is going through a hard time. So today’s episode is going to be so helpful for all of us . Four-year survivor Janice Armbrust was only 25 when diagnosed with GBM and felt very much alone as a younger adult with a terminal illness. While most of her friends considering where they wanted to live, getting settled in their careers, thinking about marriage and starting a family she was unsure of how to move forward. She wrote a book specifically for younger cancer warriors and their friends with clear advice on how best to support someone in this unique situation and I know it will be helpful to so many of you.
