Talaya Dendy was diagnosed with Stage 2 Hodgkin's lymphoma cancer in April 2011. Her treatment consisted of 6 months of chemotherapy and a month of radiation therapy. Although Talaya had great oncologists, She noticed a lack of emotional support in her journey. She started an organization known as "On The Other Side". She provides emotional support, different concepts about mindset, and communication support to other cancer survivors to get help during their cancer journey. She does meditation, massage therapy and studies bodily connections. She has also made a healing scripture book for herself and read that every day during her journey. Her message to other caregivers and survivors is "Not to be hard on yourself and take one day at a time."
