Feb 21, 2019

Imagine what life would be like if you had one eye. Would you work less or work harder?

In this first episode of the Living Legacy Podcast Series, I begin by sharing the story where it all began: my cancer story.

I share how a photograph my mother took lead to a diagnosis of Bilateral Retinoblastoma, how chemotherapy affected my hearing. Resiliency led me to not let my diagnosis and disabilities hinder my gift as a professional photographer and all the things I enjoy and have achieved to this day.

Mentioned in the Podcast:

  • Ciara, Chris Brown
  • Cases of Retinoblastoma
  • Survival Rates of Retinoblastoma
  • Kodak Polaroid Camera
  • Nikon
  • Commercial Photography
  • World Cancer Day
  • Childhood Cancer Day
