I am a Griefist: A Childhood Cancer Grief Journey Podcast

In Part 2 with Briana, we talk about navigating sibling grief, changed relationships, and changed perspectives.

Recorded while I was still pregnant, we met Briana who shares about her son, Johan, diagnosed at 18 months old with neuroblastoma. It's interesting to learn that it's not always Make a Wish that comes through for childhood cancer families.

We had the privilege of catching up with Charlie's Mumma Kel to check in on how her grief has progressed, her year of firsts, and the creation of Charlie's Rainbow.

Gramma Carmen talks us through her double mastectomy procedure and the subsequent feelings about her cancer diagnosis and journey.

Mom and I cover pregnancy, debrief from having a booth at an event, and then Mom shares some not so great news.

We crammed a 2022 update into 1 episode, but there is a lot to unravel here. Enjoy all the news and updates from 2022!

Mom and I talk about our grief during the 2021 holiday season. We reflect on our 2021 griefist guests, and we hope to continue our mission through 2022 of helping grieving childhood cancer families and friends feel less alone on their journey.

We wrap up our thoughts and some amazing takeaways on the final griefist guest of the year. Interestingly in this episode, mom survives an earthquake.

In Part 3, Davina shares with us the aftermath of losing Baby Jayce: Jayce's celebration of life, finding a routine, and receiving validation.

In Part 2, Davina walks us through post-transplant, relapse, and Jayce's suffering through end of life. WARNING - This is incredibly tough to hear, but this is childhood cancer.
