ALIVE AND STILL FIGHTING
Last year, in a social media post, Mark Pilgrim revealed why he chose to document his real and raw cancer journey.
The Hot 102.7 FM presenter shared: “Someone posted, asking why I’m revealing my personal health journey on social media, suggesting I should rather keep it to myself.
“Well, here’s one of the reasons I journal my cancer journey online, and it’s summed up in this message I received a while back from a follower: ‘I didn’t want to get out of bed today. I read your post… and stood up’.”.
He continued: “If my posts encourage just one person to find the inner strength to face another day, it’s all worthwhile.”
