THIS WAS ALREADY A CHALLENGING YEAR FOR CHEFS BECAUSE OF COVID, AND THEN YOU GOT YOUR CANCER DIAGNOSIS. WHAT HAS IT BEEN LIKE TO JUGGLE BOTH?
It has been weird, that’s for sure. Even before I was diagnosed, I was sick for three solid months.
WHAT WERE YOUR SYMPTOMS? FATIGUE?
Yes, I would get up in the morning to shower and go downstairs to the basement, where I kept all of my clothes. Sometimes, I would just get my underwear on and have to lie down on the futon and take a 15-minute nap. Then I would drive to Studio C and sit in my truck for 10 minutes to rest before I could go inside.
