Unbelievable Cancer Conqueror

The Cancer Center for Healthy Living and the 
Peoria Cancer Center Foundation are coming 
together June 6th to bring in one of the most 
remarkable cancer survivors of all time! Sean 
Swarner is a two-time cancer survivor who was 
first diagnosed at age 13 with Hodgkin's Disease 
and later with Askin's sarcoma. He was given 
two weeks to live in 1990 and is believed to 
be the ONLY person in the world to have been 
diagnosed with both deadly cancers. However, 
he did survive. Sean has only one functioning 
lung due to the removal of a golf ball sized 
tumor found with the Askin's diagnosis. Today, 
he has climbed the Seven Summits of the world
and has helped provide hope and inspiration to
thousands if not millions of people living with 
cancer. You will not want to miss Sean telling 
his inspirational story at the On Top of the 
World Event.
