E92 | In this week's episode of the Trade Legends podcast, Mark @MJTiffPlumbing sat down with plumber Nathan @NNPlumber to discuss his ongoing battle against Cancer (Non-Hodgkin lymphoma) whilst working as a tradesman within the construction industry.Chemotherapy and Construction. My Non-Hodgkin lymphoma battle as a PLUMBER.In the UK, the lifetime risk of developing cancer is approximately 1 in 2, according to Cancer Research UK.Nathan is a young plumber in the construction industry, and in early 2024 he noticed a little pain in his lower back. He thought little of it, as every tradesman in the construction industry gets a bad back from time to time. The pain failed to subside, and after many weeks of debilitating pain and endless doctors appointments, Nathan finally discovered what was causing him so much discomfort.He was diagnosed with Non-Hodgkin lymphoma (a cancer of the blood) and Nathan now knew that he had a real battle on his hands. He would have to stop working as a plumber, undergo 6 months of chemotherapy, and finally undergo an intense course of radiotherapy to destroy the tumours that had built up on his spine.Nathan now wants to educate people in the trades on a topic that he himself knew nothing about. As the earlier statement read, cancer will affect 1 in 2 people, so educating ourselves on the topic is paramount.
