The Many Faces of Cancer
As a cancer survivor and thriver, I know how important community and support are when you are facing a cancer diagnosis. That’s why I created The Many Faces of Cancer Podcast.
Each week I will be interviewing amazing people with heartfelt and inspirational stories from all sides of the cancer journey: patients, survivors and thrivers, caregivers, family and friends, and professionals. I may even throw in a bonus episode once in a while talking about things that are important to us all.
We never think it will happen to us, until it does. This podcast will be about community, knowing you’re not alone in your journey. It will also be an opportunity for people to share their stories and hopefully help others.
I hope you will all tune in. While it will be cancer stories, we all learn from others and, ultimately, these are human stories, applicable to many other areas of life.

Bringing Awareness to Hodgkin's Lymphoma Treatment Late Effects with Erin Cummings
Today's guest is Erin Cummings, co-founder and executive director of Hodgkin's International, a non-profit dedicated to supporting, educating, and advocating for long-term survivors of Hodgkin's Lymphoma Worldwide. She herself is an over 50 year survivor of Hodgkin's Lymphoma. Erin believes that survivorship is not the end of the cancer journey, but a lifelong chapter that deserves understanding, resources and hope.
We talk all about Hodgkin's Lymphoma, treatments that are thankfully no longer in practice, what are called "late effects" of those treatments, the importance of survivorship care and community, pro-active health management, and so much more!!
