On 25 November 2019, a day before his wife Clare’s 60th birthday, South African Waterman Oscar Chalupsky – Corporate Speaker was diagnosed with cancer. He later found out it was an incurable bone marrow cancer, Mulitple Myeloma. Oscar was told he had six months to live. But as with everything else Oscar does, he is determined to emerge victorious. He continues to paddle kayaks, play golf, and with a combination of medical treatment, exercise, iron determination and unconquerable optimism, he has defied every doctor’s prediction to date.
In this open conversation with Joint Dynamics podcast host Andrew Cox | Joint Dynamics Oscar openly shares his journey of -
- His radiation, chemotherapy and bone marrow transplant treatments
- Some of the latest cutting edge treatments available and emerging
- His experiences of fasting while receiving treatment
- His unwavering spirit and positive view on life
- The day Oscar was given 48 hours to live (now many months ago!)
Few Paddlers hold a record comparable to that of Oscar Chalupsky, even fewer humans share the mental strength, determination and positivity.
