Showing results for "Candor" in Health & Wellness

Welcome to Rare Candor, a podcast for people who live with and love someone with a rare disease. We'll talk about medications, accessing care, navigating everyday lift, policy and insurance issues, and more. Living with a rare disease can be an exhausting, annihilating, scary, lonely, unpredictable and invisible - for the people with their disease and those that love them. We promise not to make you depressed, peppered in humor is guaranteed, albeit likely dark humor - but we trust you will appreciate the rare candor.

Rectal Candor is a survival guide for surviving rectal cancer. In each episode I cover a specific topic related to my experience as a stage 3 rectal cancer survivor. I candidly share my experiences from diagnosis to treatment. I talk about my LAR surgery and the ileostomy I have, chemo and the side effects, pain, poop, ED... the list is endless because I am living through it right now. If you've been recently diagnosed with any colorectal cancer, my goal is to make it less scary by having honest conversations about it, and demystifying it as much as I can.
