Laura Esfeller: Life is good and we’re stronger than we think
Laura Esfeller shared a post on X:
”This time 8 years ago, I was at UCLA Health in surgery fighting for my life. My radical nephrectomy was 5.5 hours long while they removed my right kidney, adrenal gland, most of my IVC and 7 lymph nodes. Last week, I was at ASCO24. Life is good and we’re stronger than we think.”
