My Story

Turning Thirty, The Musical is based on the true story of my battle with testicular cancer. This is the real story behind the music and the musical; the experience I had from diagnosis through treatment and ultimately to survivorship is all here. I broke the story up into sections, listed below - you can go directly to one of the sections, or click through the story in order by clicking on "Begin..."

The sections of my story are:

Discovery - Finding out something was wrong.
Realization - Learning that I had cancer.
Cut It Out - Serious surgery.
Identity - Taking a new look at myself.
Recurrence - It's back.
Poison - This time, it requires chemotherapy.
New Perspective - I look at life a lot differently now.
