Sarah Bartosz recently became the Executive Director at Beat Childhood Cancer and has certainly navigated a more than difficult path to get there. Sarah and her husband John lost their son Jack to Neuroblastoma after he fought nearly 7 years with this Pediatric Cancer in 2012. Then just 4 years later, John passed away from the late after affects of a Young Adult Cancer that he had battled with while he was in his 20's. We know that things come in threes and although she is doing well health wise, Sarah was diagnosed with Breast Cancer just a few years ago.Sarah's journey has been a very inspiring one as you will find out on today's podcast. 

Sarah Bartosz recently became the Executive Director at Beat Childhood Cancer and has certainly navigated a more than difficult path to get there. Sarah and her husband John lost their son Jack to Neuroblastoma after he fought nearly 7 years with this Pediatric Cancer in 2012. Then just 4 years later, John passed away from the late after affects of a Young Adult Cancer that he had battled with while he was in his 20's.  We know that things come in threes and although she is doing well health wise, Sarah was diagnosed with Breast Cancer just a few years ago. Sarah's journey has been a very inspiring one as you will find out on today's podcast.

Sarah Bartosz , now the Executive Director at Beat Childhood Cancer, will talk about losing her son Jack and her husband John within the last 10 years to Neuroblastoma in Jack's case, and the after affects of a Young Adults Cancer in John's case.

Sarah Bartosz shares a story of inspiration which is also a story of heartache and hope. In this episode, you'll hear how a non-profit organization, Gold In September, or G9, was founded by a family after losing their son, Jack, to pediatric cancer.    Sarah describes how they learned of Jack’s diagnosis, their struggle to find a cure, and his twin sister Annie’s drive to take action. Annie wondered, if the color pink helps to raise funds for breast cancer, what color symbolizes childhood cancer and what month is dedicated to raising awareness? The answers are Gold and September.    G9 is dedicated to increasing funding for childhood cancer research and initiatives by growing awareness that inspires action to help every child, everywhere. It's the manifestation of the house that Jack inspired, Annie envisioned, John designed, and Sarah is determined to build.    G9 Vision: Coloring the world gold, so every child, everywhere will survive cancer.   G9 Mission: Raise awareness and inspire action for childhood cancer initiatives.    Sarah and Annie are planting seeds of hope and encouraging us all to grow gold for childhood cancer! They are encouraged by recent progress to raise awareness. In fact, the Milwaukee Brewers will be wearing gold at their baseball game this Labor Day, and many schools are raising funds through “Penny Wars.”    Annie's philanthropy initiative was recently honored as she was named a "100 Everyday Amazing" individual by Massachusetts General Hospital Cancer Center.    Musician Josh Wilson has been a great supporter of Gold in September. He played at Jack’s end of life celebration and you’ll hear part of his song “Pushing Back the Dark” during our discussion. and the entire song at the very end. You can also check out his video at the bottom of this page.   Listen to the podcast to hear Sarah discuss:  Leaving no stone unturned to find Jack the best possible care  Neuroblastoma  Annie's idea to create Gold In September when she was 10 years old  How working for the American Cancer Society armed her with knowledge of treatments before Jack's diagnosis  Losing her husband, John, to the effects of his own cancer treatments  Growing gold for childhood cancer   Josh Wilson's music and how it inspired Jack  Professional athletes making a difference  Generational philanthropic opportunities  Advice for parents facing cancer or other illnesses    Contact Lisa: Lisa@EverBetterU.com
