How to Be a Sick Kid

Society & Culture


Sometimes, college friends get to reminisce about the good ol' days when our biggest worries were midterms and hangovers. Other times, you get to swap war stories from that time you battled cancer. In this week's episode of How to Be a Sick Kid, we're doing both! Host Emily Krauser caught up with her Ithaca College alum, Dana S., to learn about her history with Hodgkin's lymphoma at 23 and how it didn't stop her from achieving many of her dreams, but that doesn't mean survivorship isn't something she struggles with. In fact, figuring out who you are post-cancer is a massive hurdle, and we talk all about that and more this week.You can follow Dana on Instagram.Keep in touch with How to Be a Sick Kid:InstagramTwitterFacebookEmail: howtobeasickkid@gmail.comAnd you can donate to our Patreon to help us keep going each week!For more information on Hodgkin's lymphoma, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, and all blood cancers, please visit the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society here.How to Be a Sick Kid is hosted by Emily Krauser.Edited by Daniel Emmons and Emily Krauser.Theme Music by Caymen Kwasney.
