Veterans are being diagnosed with cancer younger and too often, too late.
In Episode 1, we introduce the Veteran Cancer Network and the reason it exists. Marine Corps veterans Casey and Ashton share their personal experiences navigating cancer as a veteran and caregiver, and the systemic gaps they encountered along the way.
This episode explores how age-based screening guidelines, communication breakdowns in healthcare, and limited access to early detection put veterans at higher risk. We discuss why early, risk-based cancer screening matters, the critical role caregivers play, and how storytelling can drive real change in veteran healthcare.
You’ll also hear about Pedal for Impact, a grassroots advocacy initiative designed to raise awareness, build community, and push for earlier cancer detection for veterans nationwide.
If you’re a veteran, caregiver, or healthcare advocate, this episode sets the foundation for the conversations ahead—and why this movement is urgently needed.
This isn’t about age. It’s about risk.
