Description
Olga Stefaniuk will always be grateful she had cancer. Fighting the disease helped her find strength she didn't know she had.
Determined to use her life for a greater purpose, she started cancer support groups, brought cancer retreats to Saskatchewan and spread a message of hope to patients, caregivers and the medical community.
Her story of resilience, positivity and resolve to make a difference reminds us all what power we hold within.
