‘It’s about life around the disease’: Tim’s story
To kick off Season Two, we chat to Tim Keen who was 34 years old when he was diagnosed with a rare subtype of acute myeloid leukaemia (AML), acute promyelocytic leukaemia (APML).
Tim shares his story through diagnosis, relapse, and treatment, where he underwent two autologous transplants and arsnic treatment.
Maryanne Skarparis speaks to Tim about how integral his wife and carer, Jo, was throughout his journey, and how focusing on life after cancer helped strengthen and pull them through.
