One of my students recently shared that their mom is cancer-free. And the whole class clapped & cheered.

Damn, that felt good.

One of the coolest things we do as PTs is to help patients navigate the "after cancer" experience. But we have a lot to learn about this side of the diagnosis.

Dr. Eric Galvez, PT is a brain tumor thriver & advocate who has traveled the world to serve young adult & brain tumor survivors. In addition to the TWO books he's authored, he's also serving as the membership chair for @apta.oncbfsig & spearheading the upcoming PT Day of Service balance & falls screening event (which you should definitely participate in!).

Eric & I talked about his treatment, his rehab experience (as a patient in his own facility), & what PTs need to know about patients living beyond their brain tumor.
