In this episode we meet Julia, a 26 year Oligodendroglioma (brain tumor) survivor! In a time when so much less was known about cancer and finding information and medical information required spending hours at the library, Julia was able to overcome and get inspired by runners running by Memorial Sloan Kettering while running the NYC Marathon. This inspired her to survive and become an amazing Marathoner herself! Her story is so inspiring and we can't wait for you to hear it!
