23Year old nurse diagnosed with cancer during covid-19

My then 23-year-old brother (a nurse by occupation) was diagnosed with testicular cancer a month before the covid-19 pandemic hit, going through surgery and an intensive course of chemotherapy during the first pandemic. 

Please take a chance to read this incredible article he has participated in, regarding his journey.

  • Very insightful and an interesting read. I was diagnosed with breast cancer at age 36 during COVID-19 and completely relate to a lot of points your brother mentioned in this article.

    I'm a counsellor and my journey has and will definitely inform my practise. 
     

    Wishing your brother the best of health. I always think it's important to share our stories as it may always benefit others or make people feel less alone.
