Side Effects, Solutions, and the Power of Persistence in Caregiving

From a young age, Jill Meyer-Lippert was thrust into the caregiver role, helping to care for her grandmother who had Alzheimer's disease. She balanced supporting her grandmother with school and extracurricular activities.
Later in life, Jill cared for both her mother during breast cancer treatment and her father through various health issues until his passing. Through it all, Jill demonstrated incredible strength, resilience, and compassion. Even in the midst of her own hardships, her primary concern was helping her loved ones.
After losing her father to cancer, Jill found solace in marathon running and other endurance events. She channeled her grief into fundraising for cancer charities. Jill's experiences as a lifelong caregiver inspired her to start Side Effect Support LLC, providing resources to help cancer patients manage oral side effects from treatment. Through her organization, Jill is able to give back and make a positive impact on the lives of others facing similar struggles.
Jill's story is one of perseverance, purpose, and turning personal adversity into opportunity to help others.
