Back on Stage, One Peg at a Time

Evan Ruggiero, who grew up tap dancing, was in college when he faced one of his biggest hurdles yet — a diagnosis of osteosarcoma that eventually led to a leg amputation. When he received this news, doctors told him of all the aspects of life he would eventually be able to re-learn and participate in: walking, running, driving, swimming and so on. But one of Evan’s biggest goals was to tap dance again.

In this week’s episode of CURE Talks Cancer, we sit down with Evan and hear about his journey and the path he took to get back on stage.
