"Am I Old Yet?" A light comedy about ageing with dignity and joy.
A glorious spring day, plus the need to keep moving, so I took my phone for a walk and recorded some thoughts. High on my agenda at the moment is the need to keep promoting "Am I Old Yet?", the will to start recording "Baked Off!" and the long held desire to raise the profile of the human voice—what it is, what it means, and what we stand to lose if we fail to respect it.

After her keynote at JADPRO Live, Debra sat down with freelance medical writer and editor, Kate MacDougall, on her journey on the Camino de Santiago, similarities she recognized between her hike and the practice of oncology, and fine-tuning attitudes and perspectives on death.

Reverend Debra Jarvis uses humor to heal. She had me laughing out loud, and I'm pretty sure you will, too. Hopefully, she will have you thinking as well. Fired from her job, diagnosed with breast cancer, she still knew that she did not want to be introduced to other cancer survivors as just that. She believes that cancer is something you survive, not become identified with. When someone suggested they donate money in her name she thought, "How is that helping me?" She said, "If they really wanted to do something nice for me they would buy me a nice dinner or a great bottle of wine." This Reverend is a breath of fresh air. Debra Jarvis will get you thinking. She is honest, insightful, funny and circumspect. I think you will love her as much as I did.
