How can a widower speak about cancer survivorship? My wife didn’t survive.

Growing up with a cancer survivor for a dad never seemed unique to me until I really thought about it.

What I remember most about hearing the diagnosis of cancer was the surreal feeling that came over me.

When I was diagnosed with Hodgkin’s lymphoma at just 26 years old, I was overwhelmed with so many different emotions, but the feeling of shame kept washing over me.
