EIGHT DAYS

The Reality TV Series with a New Reality for Cancer Treatment


Fact: 1 in 5 men and 1 in 6 women will develop cancer at some point in their lifetime.

At that rate, isn’t it astounding that we still don’t have a clear picture of what healing from cancer really entails?

The emotional decisions, the lifestyle changes, the treatment options. These are the true realities of cancer healing that no one really talks about… until now.

Award-winning Director Charles Mattocks, Executive Producer Matthew Knowles, and Chief Medical Officer Dr. Antonio Jimenez, of Hope4Cancer Treatment Centers, have teamed up to change the way we understand cancer with a new reality TV series launching Sunday April 5th on WGN America. Eight Days will give viewers an inside look at what healing from disease is really like in beautiful Cancun, Mexico.

THE TRAILER

LEARN MORE ABOUT THE SERIES

Following the lives of five real cancer patients and the experts that guide them to health, Eight Days is the second season of Mattocks’ groundbreaking television series, Reversed. Coming from five vastly different backgrounds and living with various stages of cancer, each patient shares their healing journey as it unfolds in real time at Hope4Cancer Treatment Centers in Cancun, Mexico.

“A show, unlike anything that’s been seen before.”
— Dr. Antonio Jimenez

As these five individuals pursue alternative healing paths, Eight Days investigates the science behind integrative cancer treatment and educates viewers on practical disease management, including how to:

  • Treat the root of cancer instead of just the symptoms
  • Incorporate physical, emotional, and spiritual healing into treatment
  • Utilize non-toxic cancer treatment to improve health and quality of life

THE PATIENTS

Kate Malvenan

39 years old, Stage 4 Lung Cancer

A solo mother from Australia’s Gold Coast, Kate Malvenan is determined to beat cancer for her 3-year-old daughter, Annabelle. At the time of her original diagnosis, Kate was given only six months to live, with the cancer spread all throughout her spine, hips, ribs, shoulder, and liver. Refusing to give up, she arrives on Eight Days ready to embrace change with the spirit of a warrior and the strength of a mother. 

If I wasn’t a mom, I think I would have taken the diagnosis and just handled it gracefully. But being a parent, I’ve taken the gloves off and I’m ready to fight this.”

Carrie Crary

43 years old, Breast Cancer

As an active, health-conscious individual, Carrie Crary was shocked to receive her original diagnosis, and even more shocked to find her cancer had metastasized five years later. A registered nurse from Arizona, Carrie’s in-depth understanding of health and the process of traditional treatment protocols made her rethink the path she pursued for healing. Fighting breast cancer for the second time, she is determined to use therapies that support the immune system, rather than ones that force her to constantly fight for her life.

Jose Fernandez

66 years old, Prostate Cancer

Loving husband and father of five from Nicaragua, Jose Fernandez found himself facing the incomprehensible news of a cancer diagnosis on Valentine’s Day in 2018. Uncertain how to continue fighting the disease after 16 months, Jose turned to his faith in Jesus for guidance and clarity. Accompanied on Eight Days by his wife, Caroline, Jose is ready to face the disease that affects 1 in 9 men worldwide with unshakable confidence and an inspiring sense of trust.

“This journey has been a godsend. I had been asking what to do next… When I got the call for 8 Days, I knew God was answering.”

Janine Jannicelli

Since the first day of her diagnosis in early 2017, Janine Jannicelli’s goal was to utilize only non-toxic therapies throughout treatment. Developing her own treatment plan primarily focused on diet, exercise, and home remedies, Janine was able to improve her health and quality of life for almost two years, until a recent ultrasound revealed the cancer growing again. Continuing on her journey for holistic healing, Janine joins the Eight Days cast hoping to integrate new knowledge and non-toxic treatments with her already-established protocols.

Nicole Randle

(pictured right) 41 years old, Stage 3 Ovarian Cancer

A single mother from Illinois, Nicole Randle has been fighting ovarian cancer with chemotherapy and traditional treatment since 2014. After receiving the news of her cancer’s recurrence four years later, Nicole realized that in order to heal, she would also need to make some serious life changes. Ready to learn and embrace better habits to ensure a better life for herself and her 8-year-old son, Nicole starts her new chapter of health and healing on Eight Days with and open heart and fierce dedication.

“I know without a shadow of a doubt, God has not brought me this far to leave me. This is just another opportunity to bring me to a better place in life. ”
