Drew’s Story
Quote:
In October 2012, Drew discovered that the abdominal pain he had assumed to be lactose intolerance was caused by stage 3 colorectal cancer. After his diagnosis, he underwent an emergency surgery followed by months of radiation and chemotherapy with terrible side effects. By 2014 the cancer was not responding and had metastasized to his lung and liver.
In November 2017, he decided to try an anti-PD-1 immunotherapy that unlocks the power of the immune system’s best weapon—the T cell. Drew experienced no side effects during immunotherapy and was able exercise, travel around Europe, enjoy new and old relationships with family and friends, and return to what he loves most: volunteering for organizations and causes about which he feels passionate.
Drew passed away on January 24, 2021.
