In recognition of International Childhood Cancer Day, join host Sam Taylor on The Deep C as she sits down with Sickboy to share how parents and caregivers learn to cope with their child's cancer diagnosis. Sam talks about how disorienting and lonely it is when a child is diagnosed, and how it feels like being tossed into the depths of the ocean. Sam shares how the only way to survive and to carry your child through treatment is to learn how to breathe underwater, to learn how to become a fish.

In this episode, Sam and Sickboy delve into the power of community, sharing personal stories and insights on how these connections can serve as lighthouses in the midst of the storm. Sickboy hosts Jeremie, Taylor and Brian lead Sam to share the deepest truths and emotions of her daughter's cancer, during treatment and into remission.

They discuss the reasons why Sam started The Deep C, and why it's so important for caregivers to have a community and an outlet to save themselves while they give all of their energy and strength towards saving their child.
