The Lunch Box: Living With Cancer
Join Laura Lamers on a provocative talk about “Living with Cancer.” Laura will share her eight-year journey of being diagnosed in 2010 to living with Stage 4 Metastatic Breast Cancer. Laura will share her triumphs, her mistakes and her perspectives in a series of short stories. This talk will educate, inspire, instill hope, strength, and love for those with cancer, those who lost friends and loved ones to cancer and those supporting friends and loved ones with cancer. Enjoy moments of laughter peppered with the realities of what living with cancer means. Laura promises you will leave the talk changed with new questions, new perspectives and a sense of hope for what life has to offer each and every one of us every day.
Laura Lamers and her husband Dr. Mark Lamers moved to Humboldt County from Los Angeles, CA in June 2008 seeking a more wholesome life for their two children Alex and Thea Lamers who are now age 15 and 13. Laura is a retired technology consultant and owns NorthCoast Knittery in Old Town Eureka. Laura was highly successful in the technology sector, which has been dominated by men, and throughout her 25-year career, Laura has been a fierce supporter of Women’s Rights. Her artistic passion called to her when she moved to Humboldt County and in October of 2008 when she opened NorthCoast Knittery. Laura was diagnosed with Stage 3 breast cancer in 2010 and opted for treatment out of the area. Laura’s cancer returned in 2014 and today she spends her time at her shop, teaching people how to knit, designing new patterns and sharing her journey with others.
