Everything was going well for Michael Shafar in 2017. He sold out his first comedy show Jewish-ish at the Melbourne Comedy Festival, and in January 2017 landed a job as a comedy writer for channel 10’s The Project. Then in October of that year he was diagnosed with testicular cancer.
In this video, Michael – who started studying biological science – comes behind the scenes to see how Australia’s world-class pathology labs help diagnose and treat cancers, and he meets the pathologist who managed his case.
