🎤 Marianne Sveen joins the MTIP 2025 Live Talk 🎶
In our upcoming panel conversation, artist and mother Marianne Sveen shares from the journey her family was thrown into when their youngest child was diagnosed with leukemia in 2018. It’s a story of upheaval, resilience, and raw emotional honesty.
This is Marianne’s own reflection:
"In October 2018, our lives took a u-turn when our youngest was diagnosed with leukemia. Literarily everything changed over night, and everything we cherished in our everyday life, big and small, was compromised.
We navigated through years of treatment, constantly relocating from the u-turn, celebrating recovery, got run over by a relapse-train, but found our way back on track in 2021.
It´s been a ruthless and bumpy road, we’ve been dented as a family, but our perspective is richer and our gratitude is well grounded.
And to us, the only way to get through this, was to allow all feelings. No matter how ugly they felt. And let each other know that it was safe to let them show."
Marianne will be joining us both in conversation and in music. Panelsamtale: Barn og unge på sykehus - om mening, menneskelighet og mulighetsrom
