Mary Sansone: Moffitt Helped Me Preserve My Dignity

Mary Sansone learned that sometimes, to the patient, facing cancer is not the only challenge. With humor and humility, Mary takes us through her experience facing Acute Myeloid Leukemia while just off the heels of reaching sobriety from addiction for the second time. The physical and emotional worries she carried into her cancer treatment were eased by Moffit team members who showed up for her; seeing her as a whole person, worthy of dignity, respect, and compassionate care.
