Episode 11 – Push For Your Tush! Listen to Tracy how her family is living with cancer but not ruled by it

This is one of the coziest and most fun chat we have had folks – take a look at it 🙂

In this episode, Tracy and myself (Sevtap) chat about colon cancer, lived experience as a caregiver, advocacy, rising funds and rising awareness about screening tests, and the Push For Your Tush fundraisings event organized by Tracy and Colon Cancer Canada in three cities in Newfoundland and Labrador in June and July.

These are community events that aim to bring folks and families together. You can walk with them, say hi, or make a donation to support their causes.
