In this week’s episode, I speak to extended family member Kat about a big part of her family’s story - her son’s illness. Her son, Felix, was diagnosed with infant leukemia at 7 months old and was told he only had two hours to live. Spoiler alert: it has a happy ending.
A poignant, heartrending story, but one that is incredibly powerful and inspirational, Kat is phenomenal. A pillar of strength and solidarity for her family during their darkest time. But it has come at a price of her own sanity and mental health, she says.
With what she’s experienced, Kat is very familiar with all things immune systems, virus and contagion control, and we bring her learning’s to present today by talking about UK healthcare systems, the importance of cleanliness and people’s understanding of COVID.
There are links to children’s cancer charities and support groups in the episode’s show notes for anyone looking for support or who wants to donate, including St Jude Research Hospital in Memphis, Tennessee where Felix was treated.
