Leah (Kirby) Hendrix. Prime of Your Life Bone Cancer Diagnosis and Reflecting on the Ones that Reached Out.
Manage episode 359776195 series 3324084
This townie tried to escape when touring the country as a traveling nurse. Now married to a farmer, living in the country and mothering to a little boy and girl, she has planted her roots firmly in the Midwest while working as a nurse practitioner.
Listen as this guest (and fellow Franklin Magnet Middle School Knight) reunite to explain how she made friends while moving rapidly from city-to-city in the world of health care. A slip in the grocery store and a mom’s intuition turned what Leah thought as an unsightly bump into a life changing mass with a 50 percent, 5-year survival rate. Leah shares how she was in the right place at the right time when a normally pediatric cancer aggressively took hold of her leg causing her to undergo surgery and treatment that would result in an adorable pixie cut and endless days without work and feeling down and out. In an emotional recollection, she remembers the countless people who reached out to wish her well. These moments, people and trinkets kept her afloat during the hardest days.
