Join host Laura Boyd as she chats with Ian Rankin and his daughter Lucindy, who are both living with cancer. 

Lucindy shares how she discovered a lump, her diagnosis, and her treatment journey. Ian reflects on his own symptoms, the role his wife played in getting help, and his positive outlook - despite his wife’s breast cancer diagnosis and the loss of his brother to cancer. 

Ian also talks about his 2024 garden project - building a 30-foot yacht - which became a community attraction and raised funds for Beatson Cancer Charity. Together, they discuss the challenges their family has faced, the support they’ve received from the charity, and their future plans.
