Alexa loves AYA’s is my way of showing how much I care! If you are part of the adolescent/young adult (known as AYA, ages 15-39) family current or former, either by cancer or chronic illness, I will be dedicating a song just for YOU! I will also add in a few words to hopefully provide some encouragement. I am going to be dedicating songs you might not normally hear in this context, so plan to be surprised! You are always free to send a link or tag on social media. I have a YouTube playlist that I will update with every song I share.
Songs:
- Super Cool by Beck featuring Robyn and The Lonely Island (07/27/2019) I remind you how incredible you are!
- Let It Out by Switchfoot (08/03/2019) I encourage you to release what is weighing you down, no matter how you get there!
- True Colors by Cyndi Lauper or cover by Justin Timberlake and Anna Kendrick (08/10/2019) I talk about how others may see your diagnosis as who you are, but that’s not your “true colors”!
- The Middle by Jimmy Eat World (08/17/2019) We discuss a quote and change it up a little. I remind you to not let you or anyone else write yourself off yet!
- On The Inside by GFM (08/25/2019) I share some thoughts on Hurricane Harvey on the two year anniversary and talk about that relates to cancer or a chronic illness.
More to come!
