Two women discuss their experience in cancer caregiving, while giving advice to others.

For this week’s CURE Talks Cancer podcast, we’re continuing on the theme of Family Caregivers Month. We spoke with Peg Myrick, a colon cancer survivor and former cancer caregiver, as well as Martha Raymond, the founder and CEO of the Raymond Foundation.

The two women talk about the ins and outs of caregiving, including some of the aspects that they weren’t expecting when first taking on the role. They also give practical advice for caregivers, and discuss some resources that care providers can turn to.
