Meet the women taking part in dragon boat racing to help them come to terms with surviving breast cancer. Lisa Butler and Rachel Levey from Paradise City Dragons told ĢƵ Sportshour that their shared experiences had formed an “understanding that is deeply bonded.” They told us how the friendships formed with their crew-mates have helped with their emotional and physical recoveries. A film about the team of cancer survivors and supporters from Western Massachusetts is in the running for an award at the PBS Short Film Festival.
