About this listen
Continuing our Survivor Mini-Series:
In this powerful episode of All Things Cancer, NFCR President and CEO Dr. Sujuan Ba sits down with Cheryl, a stage IV melanoma survivor whose determination and persistence changed the course of her life. Told she might not live to see another holiday, Cheryl refused to accept “no” for an answer. Her relentless search led her to a groundbreaking clinical trial that not only saved her life but helped shape the future of melanoma treatment and cancer research as a whole.
Cheryl opens up about the shock of diagnosis, the uphill battle to find care, the side effects of early-stage therapies, and the unwavering hope that carried her forward. She also shares lessons for patients, families, and doctors about advocacy, resilience, and the importance of communication in cancer care.
Her story is one of courage, survival, and transformation—and a reminder that research saves lives.
