In this powerful and heartfelt episode, Renee sits down with Kayleigh Kennedy to talk about her journey into motherhood and the unimaginable moment her son was diagnosed with leukemia. Kayleigh opens up about navigating the emotional rollercoaster of childhood cancer, the strength it demanded, and the lifeline her family found in Ronald McDonald House Charities (RMHC). From the financial strain to the daily emotional toll, she shares what it's really like to care for a seriously ill child – and why support systems like RMHC across Canada are so crucial. They also dive into the importance of caregiver self-care, the incredible sense of community RMHC fosters, and how events like McHappy Day at McDonald’s (coming up on Thursday, May 8th) help families like Kayleigh’s across Canada. This episode is a moving reminder of the power of compassion, connection, and showing up for one another.
