  • In Their Own Words: A conversation with the Scaccia family
    Nov 26 2024
    In this episode, Kidney Cancer Unfiltered host Annamaria Scaccia gathers her own family for an intimate conversation about going through the cancer experience together and the impact it had on all of them. With her partner Sam and son Kelly, the family talks through learning about Annamaria's kidney cancer and subsequent thyroid cancer diagnoses and what life has been like since then. As Annamaria said, some things they have talked about before, other things were a revelation, but ultimately, the conversation brought them all a deeper understanding of what they were feeling. Because at the end of the day, it's not just Annamaria's cancer journey, it's something they share as a family. Visit kidneycancer.org for more support and resources.
