Quotes:
30:33: There's always that fear of recurrence. But it's not gonna, it's not gonna hold me down. It held me down for a little bit. And then, you know, I kind of drew inward to myself protecting and trying to heal and recover and I feel like I'm still recovering. But I have a village that helps me and that's what matters. That's what it takes is a village. You know, they take a village to raise a child it takes a village to support a cancer survivor.
