The Burn

When Cancer Clarifies with Meaghan Calcari Campbell


Listen Later

Our guest today is Meaghan Calcari Campbell from San Francisco who was diagnosed at 32 with Stage 2 Triple Positive breast cancer.  She is reading a piece she wrote titled “Dear One” from the 2021 “Bay Area Young Survivors” issue of Wildfire Magazine.  It is a story about a life transformed by what cancer took away.  It is our first about another path to motherhood. A circuitous path that began in not wanting it and ended in needing a community to make it happen.
