Alex got married on a picturesque beach in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. Five months later, he was diagnosed with Stage 3 Hodgkin's Lymphoma - a VIP pass to the tragedy buffet. Over the next six months he would endure chemotherapy, sepsis, embolisms, two surgeries, and 33 days in the hospital. Having barely escaped death, Alex challenges the delicate, taboo nature of this dark subject matter. He's real, raw, and vulnerable all while uplifting himself and others toward a healthy future.
