Cancer Canknot

As a healthy 29 year old male, blessed with an intelligent, beautiful wife and an amazing little boy - the news of the word "CANCER" seemed so far from the truth.  Since the day that I was diagnosed with Grade 4 Glioblastoma Cancer, we knew there had to be a greater plan as to why I was chosen to battle such a monstrous disease so early in life. Then, one day we had an idea; an idea on how to pay it forward. We took our experiences over the last three years and designed a Cancer Canknot jewelry line and have written a lighthearted rhyming children's book for families affected by cancer.
