In the second part of my interview with Lamps, we chat about his journey from college to professional soccer player, some of the long term side effect of treatment he still suffers from today and some of the challenges he faces. We chat about the importance of him having coaches at Chicago Fire who understand what he’s been through and the value of having the support system. Most importantly, we talk about his amazing foundation www.lampstrong .com, and everything he’s doing to help cancer patients and survivors.
