Description

On this episode of Sarcoma Stories, we welcome Shaun Nerney—actor, singer, performer, Dorito enthusiast and avid Knicks fan—to share his journey as a care partner to his fiancée, Meghan, who has been living with fibromyxoid sarcoma on the dura of her brain. Shaun reflects on meeting Meghan after her diagnosis, how his role has grown alongside their relationship and her treatment experience, and how running has become both a way to support the sarcoma community and an essential outlet for his own self-care. With his trademark humor and candid honesty, Shaun shines a light on the emotional landscape care partners navigate when a loved one faces sarcoma. Tune in for a conversation that speaks to the strength found in love, resilience and shared experience.
