Episode 3
In this episode I speak with Cody, whose daughter Brianna was diagnosed with Leukemia when she was 3 years old. Cody tells Brianna's story, how they took her to a doctor almost on a hunch, and demanded that tests be run to ensure everything was ok. He tells of the healing that he's experiencing in sharing her story, and the thanks they feel as a family for wonderful people around them who helped get them through a difficult time. Brianna is now 12 years old and has been cancer free for going on 10 years, loves animals, and is an aspiring zoologist.
