SIGN UP to watch LIVE and INTERACTIVE at 7:30pm ET tonight. Dr. Patrick Soon-Shiong and I are joined by Gretchen Micklitsch—a mother, coach, and CrossFit trainer—who is taking on stage 2 colon cancer with remarkable grit. In March, Gretchen began experiencing severe abdominal pain. Tests revealed a tumor in her intestines—stage 2 colon cancer that had likely been missed by an at-home screening during the pandemic. Emergency surgery followed.
Just weeks later, Gretchen was back in the gym—and back in the fight. In late May, she began ImmunityBio’s BioShield immunotherapy program, paired with low-dose chemo pills. So far, the results are encouraging: her ALC count—a key marker of immune strength—is on the rise. Gretchen’s journey continues, with regular screenings and no signs of recurrence to date. She regularly shares her story on TikTok, building a powerful community and helping to bring honest, hopeful conversations about cancer into the light. Tonight, she shares her story with us, and Dr. Soon-Shiong as always takes your questions about cancer treatment, science, and determination. This will be another conversation like no other you will not want to miss.
