With state-of-the-art treatments for early and advanced stage diseases, Duke’s Breast Oncology Program is one of the best in the world. They offer a complete range of service from diagnostics to genetic and prevention counseling.

It was a great privilege to work so closely with Lori and her family as she underwent breast cancer treatment. She was crucially collaborative with the process - insisting on transparency and rawness. Duke was wonderfully supportive of the production, trusting the story to unfold and opening the right doors.

It was so important for us to be able to see into their lives and not create a caricature of what a breast cancer patient is or is not. We wanted to show the joy and sadness that accompanies such a difficult journey. And further, to make that journey accessible to everyone - cancer means wigs and tears but it also means jokes, laughter and family soccer in the front yard.

Woodwalk followed Lori and her family on their cancer journey, capturing the raw emotions associated with such a diagnosis. The short video is beautifully done. I recommend Woodwalk to any organization wishing to tell a moving story of triumph over tragedy.
