    In this episode of the Young Tongues Podcast, Barbara speaks with Elfie, a fellow tongue cancer survivor whose remarkable story is one of resilience and reinvention.

    Elfie opens up about her life-changing journey—from surviving a traumatic accident in her twenties that led to the amputation of her left leg, to facing a tongue cancer diagnosis years later. She shares the emotional and physical toll of treatment, including the loss of taste and speech difficulties, and how she found strength through it all.

    Despite multiple surgeries and setbacks, Elfie’s defiant spirit shines through. Post-recovery, she embraced challenges like rock climbing and axe throwing, redefining what’s possible after cancer. She also discusses her recent contribution to the book Unleashing the Courageous Feminine, a therapeutic milestone and a celebration of her voice. The episode concludes with a heartfelt conversation about the power of support groups, raising awareness, and holding onto hope for life after cancer.
