What’s it like to be in your mid-twenties and have your Dad get cancer? Well, obviously, it sucks. But, what is it actually like? In this episode we hear from Kez Pell, a long time friend of Glynn’s, as she shares her journey of walking alongside her Dad through cancer treatment until his eventual death.

This is an honest chat about treatment changing mental health, creating unpredictability, and wearing down the carers. It’s also a chat about an absolute legend of man, Kez’s Dad, Rod Pell. She passes on some of his hard fought lessons from his cancer journey, and we are all better off for hearing them.

Lastly, Chemotional Rollercoaster is not a substitute for seeking one’s own professional advice. The strategies and skills discussed in all Chemotional Rollercoaster episodes are either what has worked for Glynn or his guests, specifically, or are things discussed in a general way. Anyone who is dealing with their own health issues, mental or physical, should seek their own professional advice on what may help to support them, uniquely. Often, the best place to start is your family doctor or GP. If anyone is struggling, and needs to talk immediately, please call Lifeline on 13 11 14.
