On the show today, my brother from another mother — Steve Friedman (https://www.linkedin.com/in/steve-friedman-mha-aaa8675/) , is the Senior Advisor of Operations for SEER at the National Cancer Institute (https://seer.cancer.gov/) . (We'll get into all the acronyms later in the show because I know you're looking forward to that.) Steve was diagnosed back in the 1990s with testicular cancer while in his 20s. So he brings with him a profound perspective of progress, not just for young adult cancer, but for cancer policy, research, and institutional growth at the Federal level. While all those free AOL CDs (https://www.vox.com/2015/5/12/8594049/aol-free-trial-cds) back then drove us crazy, Steve put them to good use and found a community of his peers using what we decided to call "dial-up support." His storied career as a public servant, nonprofit leader, and cancer advocate isn't just inspiring; it's a perfect example of how we can make the most of the time that has been given to us.
