No one is ready to hear the words: “It’s cancer.” In this candid, emotional and sometimes humorous episode, WE ARE UNSTOPPABLE hosts and sportscasters Les Shapiro and Vic Lombardi interview each other about how they discovered they had cancer — Les with stage four lung cancer and Vic with stage 3 prostate cancer. As they share the treatments they’ve been through, their fears, the ups and downs, they also reveal the unstoppable coping skills they’ve developed to keep battling a disease that may never leave you even after the treatment ends.
Les and Vic also speak openly with their doctors Ross Camidge and Paul Maroni from the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus about life after a cancer diagnosis, breakthrough treatments, how to ride the roller-coaster that is the cancer continuum — and what makes patients and doctors unstoppable when fighting disease.
Les Shapiro has done it all in sports broadcasting -- TV play-by-play for Denver Broncos games, University of Colorado football games, high school championship games and Triple A baseball. Vic Lombardi has more than 25 years of experience in the sports industry and is a 32-time Emmy award winner.
Receiving a cancer diagnosis can make you feel like you’ve been given a death-sentence, but Vic and Les are here to remind you that after a diagnosis, comes hope, and in their cases, survival.
