From Personal Journey To Global Mission
In 1984, Greg Anderson was diagnosed with metastatic lung cancer. His doctor told him he only had about 30 days to live.
Determined to conquer his disease, Greg set out to connect with other patients to discover how they were approaching their fight with cancer. His personal journey led to a global mission: To help people, everywhere, survive cancer through community, education, spirituality and financial assistance.
Greg is the founding CEO of Cancer Recovery Foundation and author of more than dozen educational and inspirational books on cancer survival. Greg survived cancer. Cancer Recovery Foundation’s goal is to help other people survive cancer, too.
