A cancer patient’s travel experience is reminder to find joy in travel

• Once they found cancer in her brain Stephanie Lee knew she wanted to travel.
• When asked what her favorite part of their family trip was, she said: “The best part was watching everyone smile.”

People joke about needing a vacation after a vacation. But Stephanie Lee was serious. My friend from high school needed a few days after returning from vacation before she had the energy to tell me about her trip. The first thing I asked was how long she was gone. It was “only” four days.
