Cancer affects everyone differently. It can be helpful to read about another person’s experience, and it can be empowering to share your own story. In honor of Thyroid Cancer Awareness Month this September, we would like to share some incredible patient stories from past years.
Interested in Sharing Your Cancer Journey?
For someone recently diagnosed with cancer, reading the stories of other caregivers and survivors can inspire.

Read about Cat who applied the saying “attitude is the difference between an ordeal and an adventure” to her thyroid cancer journey. She refused to let her disease prevent her from achieving her goals.
Read Michael’s story about the initial shock of his thyroid cancer diagnosis, his recovery process, and the amazing support network that helped him through the journey.
