Phuong Ly Gallagher’s journey with colon cancer for the last 17 years with Mark Kageyama

Mark Kageyama, Account Manager at 2BYourOwnHero, shared a post on LinkedIn:

“Phuong Ly Gallagher has been dealing with colon cancer for the last 17 years!

Diagnosed at 29 years old, she has seen many changes over this period of time!

Back then, as opposed to today in 2024, the perception and awareness was different.

Today, we have social media, and along with it, many cancer support groups, such as our Cancer Conquering Community!

With great support from her husband and stepdaughter, she has pioneered and navigated her way through stage 3-4 colon cancer.

Please join us for this true ‘Breath of fresh air’, and inspiring interview!”

Phuong Ly-Gallagher reshared Mark Kageyama’s post, adding:

“Mark Kageyama is so full of kindness and love for humanity. What a joy it was to join him for a chat about our cancer experiences.”
