Receiving a cancer diagnosis plunges your life into a whole new dimension, challenging what you thought it would look like. Receiving a brain cancer diagnosis at 29 is an even deeper challenge to all you know. When Liz Salmi received that news, she began to blog, depending on social media to share her experience and gather support from her Liz Army. How did her use of digital media impact her experience? And when her health was stable, what drew her as she moved forward in her life? It led her to work with the Coalition for Compassionate Care California, supporting patients' right to choices in their end of life and education to help them prepare.
On Good Grief we explore the losses that define our lives. Each week, we talk with people who have transformed themselves through the profound act of grieving. Why settle for surviving? Say yes to the many experiences that embody loss! Grief can teach you where your strengths are and ignite your courage. It can heighten your awareness of what is important to you and help you let go of what is not.
