This is what it’s like to have cancer
"True Talk" puts people in front of the camera who are fighting prejudice or discrimination. They answer questions that nobody would normally dare to ask directly.
Gabriel has had cancer twice and in this interview, he talks openly about what it was like. He says he never spoke explicitly about death with other cancer patients. Conversations were more focused on who had what kind of treatment, with some patients trying to outdo each other. He says when he was a teenager he was very self-critical, but having been a cancer victim, he has come to accept and appreciate what he’s got.
