Had the pleasure to sit down with a mate from School, Extremely Brave, strong, vulnerable, highly intelligent young man, Son, Brother, husband, Father and all round Great Guy Anthony ‘Vico’ Ellison.
We discuss and go in depth to his diagnosis, treatments available, prognosis, mental health, support from Family, Friends and the different impacts on changing mindsets of support and having difficult conversations.
Couldn’t thank Vico enough for his Honesty, rawness and clarity of his ideas and thinking. I hope this podcast gives some hope to people and also stimulates people to start having those tough discussions with their GP, family, Friends and even children.
