This is what surviving cancer sounds like.

Ryan Hamner is a four-time survivor of Hodgkin lymphoma, a musician and a writer. In 2011, he wrote and recorded, "Where Hope Lives" for the American Cancer Society and the song for survivors, "Survivors Survive" used in 2015 for #WorldCancerDay. Currently, he operates his website for those affected by cancer, 2surviveonline.com and drinks a ridiculous amount of coffee per day.
In 2011, a year after going on tour to perform and speak to those affected by cancer on my "Hear the Heart" tour, I wrote and recorded the song, "Survivors Survive." However, the way the song came to be wasn't exactly the best way possible, and I don't even mean because it was a song deeply connected to cancer. At the time, a nasty situation with a corporation led to me losing my main song for cancer survivors, so I had to write another one, and I did - "Survivors Survive."
