Kid Fears: A Survivor's Story

I made this movie for a speech I gave at a Relay for Life event... I am a 40ish year old breast cancer survivor and this semi-autobiographical film, set to Indigo Girls' "Kid Fears", is a tribute to some of the strongest, most beautiful people I have ever met... young survivors. Feel free to pass this along. AND THE MUSIC DOES COME IN AT :41 so hang in there...

thank you so much, I am ending my breast cancer journey (sort of, it never ends really does it) with tomorrow's last radiation treatment, and I was looking for an appropriate song to post on my blog, and I stumbled upon your journey.

hugs, karen

Big hugs, happy tears, and all the support you can handle! The journey never ends... you're right...but the scenery does change!

I chose this song because of how differently I heard it after cancer, and after meeting so many young survivors (lots of these photos are the people I met at the Young Survivors Coalition conference last year.)

Good luck and be well!

This is powerful. You should check out a video that an ovarian cancer patient made by singing a song for her doctor. It is called Mr. Pokeyman. My Wife is a survivor and I share your pain
