At 38 years old, David Lee Nelson was diagnosed with Stage 4 Colon Cancer. He kept a blog of his time in chemotherapy – a heartbreakingly funny chronicle of a disease which affects over nine million Americans. This material became the basis for his solo play,
Stages
, which he performed several years ago at the Zucker School of Medicine. David has recently written a book based on his blogs and will return to the ZSOM via Zoom to share it with us. David's story is not just about sickness: it’s a story of life’s setbacks and surprises, and about searching for hope in the most unlikely of places.
