    I am writing to express my interest in joining your podcast to share my unique journey and experiences. As someone who accepted the assignment given to me by Jesus, I believe that my story can inspire and encourage others to start their own journey towards self-discovery and fulfillment.

    Thank you
    I have just listened (and cried) to the last broadcast. This year marks my 10 years in remission anniversary for breast cancer. All the topics you have presented over the years have been so valuable to me and many other cancer patients. Thank for the laughs, tears and support. Wishing Steve much happiness with his new family and Lauren every success in the future. Fondest wishes from a former Londoner now Florida resident🥰

    Thank you
    These women helped me more than they know these last few years. I’ve laughed and cried and will likely laugh and cry more in days to come. Thank you thank you thank you.

    suggestions
    this was an experiential podcast...it has become opinion based. it had tremendous value and power as a point of identification and truth. it now feels more academic and theoretical.

    Excellent
    I am a listener from the U.S.A. I found out about it from an article I read that was about Rachel Bland. I don’t have a personal relationship with cancer, but I have heard so many scary stories about other people's experiences that I am very interested in educating myself on it. This is a very informative and honest podcast. What makes it special, is each host as their own particular relationship with cancer and it allows for very diverse conversations. I highly recommend!

    Great episode on recurrence
    Great podcast, found it towards the end of treatment and wish I’d found it earlier. The guests bring good perspective. It’s real and it’s helpful.

    Very informative and real
    Granted I canceled my oncology appointment after listening to the episode About The Pain, that’s how real this podcast gets. You will learn the reality of the cancer process with this podcast, it’s very informative!

    It’s changing focus
    I have absolutely loved this podcast. However, I feel it has become a bit too much about the three stars and not cancer. I do hope you don’t lose track about why it was started, and refocus.

    Real life
    So real - I found this after my own diagnosis. It’s a well rounded look at life with cancer.

    Inspiration
    I found this podcast right after my mom was diagnosed with stage 2 bladder and stage 1 uterine cancer... it has really helped me cope with what my mom was going thru and helped me relate to her on a different level and helped encourage me to become certified in Oncology Aesthetics so I can help cancer patients cope with the side effects dealing with their skin before, during and after treatments. I have laughed along with you and cried with you too....please continue to inspire and motivate and I will always keep you in my prayers! ~Bethany

    Brutally Honest, quick Witted and full of Humanity
    As a woman in the wind down stage of treatment for breast cancer-I have wept and laughed as I listen to these ladies. They possess just the right combination of empathy, dark humor and first person knowledge that has buoyed me with a sense of not being alone. At times I felt as if I was listening to someone tell MY story—only in a more articulate, funny way! I wish I had found them sooner so I felt less alone on my toughest days. I plan to ask select friends and family to listen to these pod casts with the hope they gain more understanding of an experience that is not unique to me-yet difficult to understand if you haven’t been through it yourself. A MUST for anyone who is trying to care for or be a friend to someone who is going through any type of cancer. Please keep going ladies...you are helping people more than you know and I’m so very grateful for you! -Jen Bauer

    On death
    Dear ladies, Thank you so much for discussing death. My grandma recently passed away suddenly and I was devastated I couldn’t be there ( I live in New York and she lives in England) your discussion on the actual dying process made me feel better about her actual dying. Instead of the horror scene of her clutching for air I can now see how her body would have slowly shut down in those final hours. No one talks about this. Thank you so much for opening the conversation. You are amazing! Love the pod!

    Great, honest podcast about living with cancer
    Hits the nail on the head! For those coping with a cancer diagnosis, the hosts do a great job processing and articulating the experience. Highly recommend for those ‘in the club’ as well as for friends and family who want to understand what those living with the dreadful disease may go through.
