Gene O'Neill joined the show to talk about his battle with cancer from responding to 9/11. The narrative of any life can change in the span of a heartbeat, yet it's the strength we draw from those around us that can chart the course ahead. Gene's visceral recount of the day his world shifted—believing a battle with kidney stones was at hand, only to face the grim reality of cancer—underscores the fragility of our well-being. His experience is a profound reminder of the importance of medical expertise, the necessity of support systems, and the sheer weight of confronting our own mortality. Through Gene's openness, we gain insight into the silent struggles that many heroes like him endure and the humbling hand of support that can turn a fight for life into a journey of hope.
