Even when someone is diagnosed with terminal illness, we are in denial.
Ever wondered how someone copes with a life-altering diagnosis like brain cancer? In this compelling episode of 'A Quest for Well-Being', Valeria Teles sits down with Lila Glasoe Francese to discuss her sister Carolyn Glasoe Bailey's harrowing yet inspiring journey. Carolyn, an art gallery owner in Manhattan, was diagnosed with glioblastoma, a condition likely linked to her proximity to Ground Zero during 9/11.
This conversation goes beyond the medical aspects, delving into the emotional and psychological challenges faced by Carolyn and her family. Lila shares how Jon Stewart's powerful testimony before Congress inspired her to publish 'The Situation', a book she wrote to help others navigate similar journeys. The episode touches on the tough decisions terminal patients must make, the role of alternative medicine, and how art can be a source of healing.
Valeria and Lila remind us that grief doesn't follow a schedule and emphasize the importance of expressing emotions for mental well-being. Carolyn's story is a poignant reminder of the strength found in love and family. Tune in to hear a tale of resilience and the enduring power of art.
