On this raw and powerful episode of The Chronically Unbalanced, Sezzy the Lezzy and Peg Leg Meg sit down with Sarah Campbell as she shares her deeply personal story of love, loss, and resilience.
At just 21, Sarah’s world changed when her mum was diagnosed with breast cancer—a battle that stretched nearly a decade, with moments of hope and devastating relapse.
In 2016, Sarah said goodbye to her mum.
Six years later, she would farewell her dad on what would’ve been her parents’ wedding anniversary.
As the primary carer for both parents in their final months, Sarah opens up about the emotional toll, the strength she didn’t know she had, and the complexity of grief that lingers.
She also shares the ongoing heartache of loving a brother struggling with addiction and incarceration.
This is a story about showing up when it’s hard, when it hurts, and when there’s no roadmap.
It’s about being Chronically Unbalanced and still finding your way forward.
Trigger warning: This episode contains discussions of terminal illness, death and suicide.
