Redefining the support group: my TEDx talk

Newly DiagnosedOn TreatmentSurviving
Written By Liz Salmi

Here's a little something different: instead of a blog post, watch this video of me talking about my brain cancer experience.

The moral of the story in this talk is you. Yes, you dear reader.

This was recorded on April 18, 2013 as part of a TEDx event in Sacramento, California.

TEDx is a local, self-organized event that brings people together to share a TED-like experience. TEDx events are organized and overseen by official TED curators.
