During #KidneyCancerAwareness month, we want to highlight the importance of patient advocacy and access to the best care for #kidneycancer patients. Tracy's wife, Julie, was diagnosed with stage three clear cell renal cell carcinoma in 2014. 

Tracy shares their experiences from a caregiver perspective and emphasizes the importance of having a second set of ears and caregiver mental health. After Julie's surgery, Tracy and Julie decided to move to Ohio, where they could access world-class hospital systems for Julie's care.
