72. Kyla Thomson - Inspiring The World To Be #BellaBrave (Pt. 2)
I was so grateful to have the opportunity to sit down with TikTok megastar Kyla Thomson to discuss her life as a medical mom to Bella. Bella and her family have been inspiring the world for years on social media, creating and promoting the hashtag #BellaBrave, reminding us all that we can do hard things while finding a silver lining amidst even the most difficult challenges.
A word from Kyla:
I am Kyla Thomson and I am a medical mom to Bella. Before Bella was born I was a teacher. My husband and I have lived on our acreage near Swift Current, Saskatchewan, Canada (where I grew up)since 2012. Currently Bella is 8y old and in grade 3. Our son Waylon (non - medical kiddo) is 3 years old and the sweetest little brother to Bella.
The first 2 years of Bella’s life we spent in hospital. Those years put her through many bowel surgeries for LSHD & CVCs, a bone marrow transplant for having been unknowingly born with SCID and many hospital transfers. Currently 23 surgeries,
Bowel failure & loss of vascular access has landed Bella on the Bowel Transplant waiting list since July of 2020. We are currently managing her conditions through the primary care of Alberta Children's Hospital & Toronto SickKids hospital while I remain a full time medical mom in our home.
My daughter Bella has not only made me a medical mom but has shown me what it means to be brave. We aim to inspire the world & show that you can still find joy through the hardest of times. My husband and son are the rocks that support us through it all.
Each day from birth my baby girl has had to fight rare disease and she continues to do so with such bravery and strength. She has taught me so much as her momma and I couldn’t be more proud of how she handles this medical life.
