Alex Obendorf learned he had advanced testicular cancer in 2020 during his senior year of college at the University of West Virginia. He left school and the final year of his swimming scholarship to return home for treatment. It's crucial to know Alex had a 10-pound tumor wrapped around his aorta and other organs, a situation that required an 8- to 10-hour surgery. To show their support, his university swim team, coach, and team psychologist showed up at Alex's door during his cancer journey.
More than two years later, Alex shares his story of survival, mindfulness, and plans for the next phase of his life to give back to others facing similar healthcare challenges.
