🎙️ "Cancer. Heart Disease. Health. Well-being. And the unexpected medicine of laughter." Life can change in a heartbeat — a diagnosis, a heart attack, a moment that stops you in your tracks. We’ve been there, and now we’re talking about it. From treatment and support to family, friends, mental health, and the resources that get you through — we’re sharing it all. But it’s not just about illness; it’s about life. News, sports, hobbies, crafts, and the little distractions that keep us sane. Along the way, special guests bring fresh voices, real stories, and new perspectives. Light-hearted. Funny. Honest. Addictive. This isn’t just another podcast — it’s a community. Tune in, laugh with us, learn with us, and remember… all we ask is just a little smile.

Spring has Sprung

Spring has Sprung

Martin & Patrick Chat,

Martin is currently battling with Stage 4 Lung cancer and is on a very new trial drug called Lorlatinib (details will be posted in our blog). Following Martin's recent CT (Computed Tomography) Scan completed two weeks ago are in, we discuss the findings and Martins's reaction to the results.

We discuss our very first "LIVE" road show presenting to Sudbury Sporting Memories. This is the first time Martin and Patrick have performed live together since 1998 in front of a real-time live audience.

A brief introduction to CPR (Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation) is covered today.

One of our listeners from the USA writes in and tells us his story leading up to and including his recent Heart Attack, the treatment he received, and his family support.

Patrick also discusses how one of his friends has recently been told he will require three stents and the long 3-month wait for his procedure.

Drugs and their names are they necessary?
