Dana Lisowski defeated cancer in 2010. She was excited to celebrate 12 years of victory over cancer when she found out the horrendous back pain she had been experiencing was actually the cancer returning in another part of her body. Right now, she is going through various treatments to help her pain and keep her here a little longer, and she joins us today to candidly talk about what it looks like to live knowing you may only have a few months or years left here. This is a perspective I think we can all learn and grow from. Listen in, and then check out Dana’s blog and keep up with her journey below.

Join both the Chief Medical Officer (CMO) and the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of CURE International today on the podcast. Dr. Rick Gardner and Justin Narducci share with us the heart of CURE International, a Christian NGO operating eight pediatric hospitals to provide surgical care for children living with treatable disabilities like cleft palates and bowed legs.

Denise was on her way home on December 23. 2011, when she stopped to help a family stuck on the side of the road. As she was helping them, a car lost control on the ice, crushing Denise between their car and her car. After losing more than the total amount of blood in her body, there were multiple instances where Denise lost her heartbeat or stopped breathing. During one of these instances, Denise saw a vision of her son, Kody, who had passed away in a car accident two years prior. Today she shares about this experience, her recovery after the accident, and what life looks like for her now as an amputee and blood donor advocate. Join us for this Christmas accident (Christmas miracle) story!
