Survival shouldn’t be a guessing game.
Diagnosed with advanced T-cell lymphoma in 2009, Army veteran and attorney Glenn Sturm refused to leave his survival to chance. He built his own integrated, multidisciplinary Cancer care team before most hospitals even knew what that meant.
Now he’s writing the book on it — literally — and the data behind his approach is staggering: a 70% reduction in mortality rates for cancer patients who use this model.
3 Takeaways:
(1) Your cancer team should have more than just a doctor. Glenn’s research identified 46 potential specialists — from psychiatrists and Exercise physiologists to epidemiologists and music therapists. Most people need five. Almost no one has them.
(2) Mindset isn’t a cliché — it’s medicine. From making someone laugh every day to finding a passion worth fighting for, Glenn lives by one phrase: “We must give up hope for a better yesterday.” Move forward, on purpose.
(3) Children spell Love as T-I-M-E. Not quality time — quantity. The people and passions that fill your days are what slow the disease and extend the life.
