Patient travels from Utah to Indianapolis with family for specialized cancer care
IU Health Simon Cancer Center
When Colten St. John traveled from Utah to Indianapolis for specialized cancer care there was never a question about whether his wife and baby daughter would join him. For more than two months, the St. John family lived in an apartment by University Hospital, allowing Colten to get the treatment he needs while still being the father he wants to be. "I was diagnosed [with testicular cancer] when my daughter was just two months old," said Colten. "The first year of your kids life, I mean, they change so fast... and I don't want to miss being present as a father for all those milestones."
