I want to give a special thanks to Jeff Wilks for letting me photograph moments of his journey to rid himself of colorectal cancer. This project has become so valuable and significant to me as I was allowed to capture such a difficult process. Through it all, Jeff worked hard to maintain his loving and positive disposition, and was very successful.

I loved all the time he and I spent together, especially all the meaningful conversations we had. I greatly appreciate his willingness to be vulnerable with me in front of the camera.

I love you dad!
