Life's a Wreck

Not Today Death, Life with Chronic Illness Ft. Jeremie Saunders


Listen Later

Very cool episode this week. Today I sit down with a true one of one in the podcasting world, Jeremie Saunders from CBC's Sickboy podcast, to explore his experiences as a man living with Cystic Fibrosis (CF), the most common fatal genetic disease affecting Canadian children and young adults. Jeremie shares how he learned of his diagnosis as a child and how it shaped his views on life after learning that he'd be unlikely to see his 35th birthday. He explores the nuances of living life faced with his mortality through the lens of mental health and provides an authentic look into the highs and lows associated with his disease and the subsequent release of a life-saving drug in Trikafta.
