INTERVIEW. Marc Michils (69) says goodbye as director of Kom op tegen Kanker after ten years: “I am glowing with pride. More than you think, you know”

“The fact that thousands of cancer patients who have given up are still alive and that a multitude of sick people have a better quality of life: you can’t move a bigger stone”, retiring director Marc Michils summarizes the gigantic effect of the past ten years of Kom op tegen Kanker. The former advertising man not only fought against cancer outdoors, but also had to fight The Beast indoors. Twice even. “It was that bitter.”
