A cancer diagnosis changes your life – forever. How well I know. Pancreatic cancer quickly took the life of my husband and partner, Dr. Philip Fritchey – the master herbalist who had a gift for wildcrafting medicinal herbs and plants and deeply understood the healing power and energetics of natural medicine…his unique processing methods that created the products that launched Sunshine Botanicals exist to this day and is what sets our brand apart. My amazing father lost his leg to bone cancer and had more skin cancer surgeries than I can count… he was a very strong man and handled so much with tremendous grace, and I seemed to follow in his footsteps. I have personally survived multiple skin cancers and Moh’s surgeries. …to say I understand the physical and emotional impact of this raging beast is an extreme understatement. The irony of all this was that my passion for corrective skincare had me studying aesthetics and skincare at a very young age. In my heart, I knew there had to be effective alternatives somewhere, and conventional drug therapy only suppressed symptoms – I wanted to know what the root causes of these skin disorders were so I could participate in my own healing process.
