May 25th 2016

Scott Hersh is a colon cancer survivor. His journey started in August 2012 when he was initially diagnosed with stage 3 colon cancer at 48 years old. His journey continued with metastatic colon cancer (stage 4) in September 2013 and a recurrence again in January 2016. Each time, he endured six months of chemotherapy and had two major abdominal surgeries - one in September 2012 and one in June 2014. He is currently halfway through his third chemotherapy tour of duty. He receives his treatment at Johns Hopkins Hospital and shared that he is extremely grateful for his dedicated doctors, nurses and their staff.
