Anaelli Castro - 2 Time Rhabdomyosarcoma Survivor & The Importance of Connection

In this week's episode of Cancer Actually F***ing Sucks we're speaking with Anaelli Castro, a two time Rhabdomyosarcoma survivor, a rare form of sarcoma. Anaelli was diagnosed at 17 and then again 13 years later. We talk about feeling emotionally numb and in survival mode during chemo and radiation treatment, the depression and anxiety that comes after and how she was able to get out of It. She explains how important It is to ask for help and find support wherever you can with other people you can relate to.  Anaelli opens up about wanting to find her purpose after cancer and how the organization Regarding Cancer helped her immensely through It all. Regarding Cancer pairs cancer patients with a survivor of that same cancer to help support them through the ups and downs of their diagnosis. To get in touch with them to find support or volunteer, check out their website regardingcancer.org.  Keep up with us and our guests on Instgram and Facebook @canceractuallysuckspodcast!
