FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Kut2ThaChase Foundation and Coming Home Well Announce Transformative Documentary: Reclaiming Life: A Cancer Story of Hope
San Antonio, March 3, 2025 – The Kut2ThaChase Foundation, in collaboration with Coming Home Well, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, is proud to present Reclaiming Life: A Cancer Story of Hope, a groundbreaking documentary that redefines resilience, healing, and personal transformation.
In a world where the word “cancer” often evokes fear and uncertainty, this film invites audiences on an inspiring odyssey of survival, hope, and renewal. The documentary follows a veteran, award-winning author, and multiple myeloma survivors as they embark on the historic Camino de Santiago, discovering what it truly means to reclaim life after a life-altering diagnosis.
A Story of Strength, Advocacy, and Rediscovery
More than a tale of survival, Reclaiming Life delves deep into the emotional and physical realities of navigating cancer treatment, the raw struggles of diagnosis, the toll of therapies, and the profound impact on identity. But beyond survival, it is a story of empowerment and advocacy, one that shines a light on the importance of self-advocacy, community, and personal growth.
The film follows its protagonist as they take each step along the Camino de Santiago, illustrating how the journey to recovery is paved with both challenges and triumphs. Through candid reflections and intimate interviews, audiences will witness the power of human connection—family, friends, and fellow survivors—who walk alongside the protagonist, reinforcing that healing is not a solitary path.
Uniting Two Communities: Veterans & Cancer Survivors
Through its collaboration with Coming Home Well, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting veterans in their transition to civilian life, the documentary expands its scope to explore the parallels between cancer survivorship and the veteran experience. Both groups face the daunting task of rebuilding their identities after trauma, and both rely on resilience, advocacy, and connection to move forward.
This partnership aims to:
- Foster Meaningful Conversations – Creating a bridge between cancer survivors and veterans by exploring themes of strength, transformation, and reclaiming life.
- Inspire Hope and Action – Showcasing personal stories that resonate across both communities, offering a shared language of resilience and perseverance.
- Encourage Healing Through Movement – Highlighting the Camino de Santiago as a metaphor for recovery, demonstrating that healing happens one step at a time.
- Offer Participants a True Healing Experience – Ensuring that cancer survivors and veterans can partake in the trek without financial burden, empowering them to reclaim their stories without feeling exploited for pharmaceutical funding. This journey is about giving power back to the patients and survivors.
The Training Journey: Preparing for the Impossible
For those weakened by chemotherapy and surgeries, walking hundreds of miles across rugged terrain may seem unthinkable. Yet, the documentary captures the grueling yet rewarding training process, showing how survivors push their physical and emotional boundaries to reclaim control over their bodies. This training is more than preparation, it is a testament to the survivor’s unwavering commitment to life beyond illness.
A Call to Action: Join the Movement
Reclaiming Life: A Cancer Story of Hope is more than a documentary—it is a call to action for survivors, veterans, and supporters alike. It is an invitation to walk alongside those who have faced the unimaginable and emerged stronger.
