Andrea St. Sauver has always seen herself simply— a regular mom, Stepmom, wife and friend who spent most of her life dealing with the ups and downs of managing a rare genetic condition. Despite yearly exams and a total colectomy in 2016, something wasn’t quite right in her abdomen following her pregnancy in 2020. Stay tuned for her real testimony as she dealt with the diagnosis of an inoperable desmoid tumor, endured aggressive chemotherapy, and realized a will to continue living life on her terms.
