Touraine Lynch and Maimah Karmo founder of "Tiger Lily Foundation" discuss the unique insight into young adults diagnosed with cancer and there personal lives during and after treatment.

When two cancer survivors meet to discuss life before, during and after cancer it couldn't have been a better match.
