First Descents provides outdoor adventures as a way tp help cencer survivors heal emotionally. Kelley Brupbacher, Director of Development explains to host Nikki Kayser that in 2001, ten young adults took to the rivers of Colorado in whitewater kayaks. For seven days, they learned the basics of the sport, eventually conquering Class III rapids before the week’s end. They were there to prove to themselves that cancer, no matter how aggressive, dormant, advanced, or invasive, would never be stronger than they were.
