Listen Later

Grab your tissues. We hear from Brittany, one of my amazing and strong followers, about her son, Cole, who has high risk acute lymphoblastic leukemia and her son, Hudson, who has Chron's Disease.
Thank you so much to Brittany for sharing her and her family's story. 

In the episode, we cover:

  1. Brittany, you’re here today to share with us about life as a family with two small kids, one diagnosed with cancer and one with chrons disease back to back. But tell us about how life was for you just before these awful news?
  2. Tell us about what led up to these diagnoses, what made you do the testing?
  3. You have to often shift between mom and caregiver, tell us about how this works between you and your support system and how has it impacted your mental health?
  4. What has helped you get through all of this?
  5. How can we best support a friend with a child with cancer?
  6. Brittany is a suburban Chicago mom of 2 boys and a childhood cancer advocate.
