Two-time cancer survivor Sean Swarner is living proof of triumph against all odds. At age 13, then age 15, he was diagnosed with cancer and given only weeks to live. Both times he beat the disease and nearly 15 years later he climbed to the summit of Mount Everest with only one fully-functioning lung.
Since then he has completed the Seven Summits, reaching the highest point on each continent, as part of an ongoing mission to inspire those who have been touched by cancer. Sean continues to push himself to the limit to prove anything is possible and motivate those affected by the disease to inspire each other.
