I sit down with Jaystan Davis, colon cancer survivor at age 19, as we discuss Lynch Syndrome, basketball, and more. We also talk about how what was originally thought was an infection was actually additional cancers, so being your own advocate is important. His clinical trial of immunotherapy and folfox proved to be effective in treating Jaystan. He did the treatment for 2 years from home, while still being a student. August 2023 was his last treatment and is cancer free. So now what happens? There's no playbook, especially for someone in this space at this age. We talk about coaching with his father, and I share my one season of coaching basketball experience.
