Hey there, tiny audience. I'm Alice. Well, Alice was my grandmother's name, and Zavial is a place where the ocean meets the shore.

My story, like any story, is unique, but here's why I share it. To help you feel less alone if cancer also made you the youngest person in the waiting room. To shed a light on what a cancer journey is like for those supporting a loved one on this path.
