Facing cancer, a son of Scotland turns to his craft

Bring on the Scottish accent!!

On today’s episode, Kelin and I talk to Scott Wilson. 

Scott is a husband, father, internationally acclaimed photographer, and a stage 4 colorectal cancer survivor.

He is a powerhouse advocate for education, screening, research and treatment advances for colorectal cancer, in Colorado and at the national and international levels.

A few of our topics…

* What it’s like to communicate with our kids about cancer

* Why it’s important for male patients and survivors to have their own space to talk

* The tattoo that Scott is planning on getting in two years

A native of Scotland, he has that unmistakable accent. Because I’m an American descendent of Scottish ancestors, I have had a bro crush on Scott for a while, and I’m pretty sure that if you listen to a few minutes of this podcast, you will too.

About the Podcast

Man Up to Cancer
The show built for men facing cancer, and the people who love us!
I'm your host, Trevor Maxwell. I'm a stage IV colon cancer survivor, and I've got a message for other men: You don't have to go through cancer alone.

On the Man Up to Cancer podcast, you can expect raw, unfiltered conversations about men, cancer, and our experiences. My guests will be other patients, survivors, advocates, health experts, and friends from #cancerland.

We'll tackle a wide range of topics including cancer screenings, chemo, friendship, scars, sex and intimacy, grief, and the physical suck-fest of cancer. But .. PLOT TWIST.. we're also going to joke, laugh, and have fun.
