Cheryl and Patrick met as kids at a summer camp in their native upstate New York. But it wasn’t until they by chance attended the same college that their meeting turned into something more. In 2019 Cheryl was diagnosed with breast cancer, her treatments coincided with the Covid-19 Pandemic. Not even a year later, Patrick experienced his own health scare that nearly cost him his life. Their love story is a powerful testament to how love can withstand the worst of life and come out stronger.

In this episode we talk about loving through serious illness, equality among the sexes, choosing not to have kids, and falling in love with where you live.
