An Unexpected Fight: A Pediatric Cancer podcast
Our podcast delves into the challenging journey of pediatric cancer, exploring topics such as diagnosis, treatment, fundraising, and addressing common questions. Each episode sheds light on hospital experiences, mental health struggles, and financial hardships. We invite families of pediatric cancer warriors, pediatric oncologists, researchers, representatives from non-profits, and those who have lost children to join us and share their stories. Whether the battle has been won, is ongoing, or ended in loss, we aim to amplify the voices of those affected by pediatric cancer and honor the memories of children who fought bravely.
You can also get involved with the National Pediatric Cancer Foundation through fundraising, volunteering, promoting awareness, or contributing to pediatric cancer research. Visit nationalpcf.org for more information about the foundation

Steve Garraty, author of Greatfruit: How Cancer Led to Living a More Fruitful Life.
Steve Garraty was lucky to be graduating high school. He was partying and living a lifestyle that wasn’t sustainable. His priorities were upside down. He was running towards the edge of a cliff and unable to stop himself. Then God intervened. He heard the three dreaded words none of us ever want to hear: “You have cancer.”
After embarking on chemotherapy and a year of hell, as all his friends headed off to college, he beat the cancer. He went from victim to victor, from asking “Why me” to “Why not me?” He ended up not only surviving but thriving.
Today, Steve has been married for more than thirty years to his beautiful wife, Wendy. They have raised two incredible kids who have both graduated college and begun their own careers. Steve has had a successful career in sales and leadership. He’s hired more than 250 people in his career. He’s coached and developed more than a thousand sales contributors and sales leaders. He cares deeply about helping others and seeing others achieve success and accomplishing their goals.
He views cancer as being the best thing to ever happen to him. It changed everything…for the better! He grew from his experience. It set the foundation to be a better husband, father, friend, and leader. He writes to share his experience to help others alter their perspective and view the glass as full!
Steve resides in Tampa, Florida. He enjoys traveling, music, exercise, watching UGA football with his son, and spending as much time with family as possible.
