Should we be so sensitive? Just because something triggers a memory of my traumatic journey, is that bad? Or, as a fighter, can I face that fear? And, if I let it, can that actually be healthy for me?
Some folks have claimed that Thor: Love and Thunder should have come with warnings because of graphic cancer treatment scenes. As a cancer fighter in the thick of it, I disagree.
Listen to Part 2 where Pete gives his perspective after watching the movie. He also shares how not only did he view these scenes as a cancer fighter, but as a son who lost his mother to metastatic melanoma of the liver.
