Greg Price was an engineer, pilot, and athlete who died of complications after testicular cancer surgery in 2012 in Canada. A review of his case found missed faxes, follow-ups, and botched data sharing, ultimately costing this vibrant 31-year-old Alberta man his life.
All of the missteps in his case took 407 days from his first diagnosis until he died.
His sister, Teri Price, is the executive producer of the 30-minute film Falling through the Cracks: Greg's Story, which was released in 2018. She is fighting to improve the Canadian healthcare system, which she says failed her brother and continues to fail to change.
The Max Mallory Foundation shares this episode of Don't Give Up on Testicular Cancer, in which Teri shares Greg's story and her family's efforts to improve the Canadian healthcare system. As they began working on the film, they established Greg's Wings.
