Kathy’s Story

“I will never forget the doctor looking at me and saying, ‘I’m sorry, you have cancer.’ And not just any cancer, one of the lousy ones with a weird name and no reliable treatments. Three years to live. Incurable. No grey.” 

For Kathy Giusti, what began as a 3-year death sentence turned into a 25-year crusade to not only save her own life, but disrupt and galvanize a deeply broken healthcare system and transform care for millions facing a fatal diagnosis.
