What I liked

The use of multimedia was lovely and effective.

What I didn't like

.

My overall impression

Heathers show is alive in a beautiful way- some of which is because she’s recently finished treatment and partially because of her brilliant use of multimedia- some of the best I’ve ever seen. No smoke and mirrors or costumed characters or fancy editing - Heather documented her journey on video – chemo, coldcapping, doctors, etc…. this brings her story to life and gets you right in the gut. She gracefully tells a vulnerably story with a lot of highs and lows it’s horrifyingly universal because we are all at risk so we immediately feel for her, but we are even more so drawn into this story because of this kind and thoughtful woman who so lovingly depicts her husband, mother, and friends, and even the doctors and nurses with such a sense of compassion and care.
