Supporting The Cancer Community With His One Percent Podcast, With Truitt Taylor

The WE Have Cancer community mourns the passing this week of Chere Garcia. Chere was a guest on the podcast in 2016. You can listen to our conversation at https://wehavecancershow.com/026. May her memory serve as a blessing to her family, friends and all who loved her.

In this episode I had the pleasure of speaking to fellow colon cancer survivor and fellow podcaster Truitt Taylor. During our interview we discussed:

  • The meaning behind "One Percent" and why he created the podcast.
  • Why he believes it's important for people to tell their story.
  • The importance of creating a legacy.
  • How he came to be diagnosed at the age of 31.
  • How cancer helped him revaluate his personal and professional priorities.
  • His long-term goal for the One Percent Podcast.

Lee & Linda Silverstein

In 2011, just four months after they began dating, Lee was diagnosed with Stage 2 colon cancer. A year and a half later, 17 days after their honeymoon, they learned that Lee’s cancer had spread to his liver; he was now Stage 4. Through numerous surgeries, chemotherapy infusions and assorted other treatments, Linda has been by his side. Despite cancer, Lee and Linda say unequivocally these have been the best years of their lives.

In 2015 Lee launched this podcast as a way to provide information, inspiration and hope to those affected by cancer.

Lee and Linda live in Florida with their Westie Terrier, Fergie.
