Joel & Amanda Stetler
from Sarcoma Stories
On today’s episode, we’re joined by Joel and Amanda Stetler — a dynamic couple from California. Joel has been knowingly living with a low-grade fibromyxoid sarcoma, and in the ten years since his diagnosis, the Stetlers have parented three children, Amanda has pursued a doctorate degree, Joel has navigated career changes, they’ve traveled, and—true to their motto— they have certainly lived loudly. In our conversation, Joel and Amanda share both the patient and care partner perspective on the frustrating journey to diagnosis, what life has looked like since, the honest conversations they’ve needed to have, and perspectives that have helped them continue living loudly, even when life feels most uncertain. Living in the sarcoma world can feel isolating. We often look to one another—patients and care partners who understand this experience—for community, perspective, and hope. Joel and Amanda are the type of people who offer that simply by being themselves, and we’re so grateful they’ve come on the podcast to share their story with our community.A huge thank-you to Joel and Amanda for joining us Subtype Page: https://curesarcoma.org/sarcoma-subtypes/low-grade-fibromyxoid-sarcoma/ Sarcoma Patient Pathways Survey Discussion Guide Sarcoma Stories FB Group Connect with Joel & Amanda: Joel’s Instagram: @hey_mr_stetler Amanda’s Instagram @rhythm_and_light
