Attendees perused the illustrations of cartoonist Robert Marcel Lepage, who was treated by Dr. Schwenter for colorectal cancer some years ago. Ever since, Lepage has exhibited his work at each edition of this event, charting his healing process through illustrations. The musical portion of the event had attendees listening to the strains of Dr. Schwenter himself on the cello, in a duo with pianist Claire Ouellet, another mainstay of the event each year. Colorectal cancer is the third most common cancer in Canada, accounting for approximately 12% of all new cancer diagnoses. Preventive screening and research advances are essential tools in the fight against it. Dr. Schwenter and Robert Marcel Lepage\u2019s initiative brings real hope to patients with digestive cancer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
