  • Will Guilfoile on Stage 4 Melanoma at 29: “It’s Me Versus Me”

    Will Guilfoile is 29 and living with stage 4 melanoma that has spread to his brain, bones and organs. Every morning he treats it as a contest with himself. Will tells Alex Perry what he means by it's me versus me: trying to be a better son, brother and uncle than he was yesterday, and not comparing his situation to anyone else's. He shares how a skin mark hidden under his long hair in 2022 led here, what the cancer has taken from his career and social life, and why he says he wouldn't trade what it has given him.
