Kristin Connor was living a typical life as a business litigation attorney, a job she held for about a decade and absolutely loved. Then, while she was pregnant with her second child, everything changed. Her unborn son was diagnosed with an unusual form of neuroblastoma, a cancer that's rare in children to begin with, and almost unheard of in unborn babies. After he was born, Kristin and her family spent two years going through test after test, tracking the tumor and evaluating options – all before any invasive surgery ever occurred. After trekking 3,000 miles, clear across the country, to meet with a doctor who seemed to offer the least worst alternative, the hand of god stepped in a performed what can only be described as an honest-to-goodness miracle. More on that in the interview. This experience led Kristin to leave her law career behind and dedicate her life to helping other families whose children are battling cancer. Today, Kristin is the CEO of CURE Childhood Cancer, a national nonprofit organization that raises millions of dollars each year to fund childhood cancer research and help families. September is Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, and your donations are encouraged today and every day. You can donate directly at THIS LINK. In this inspiring episode, Kristin shares more about what she loved as an attorney; the way she got involved in childhood cancer research; how she became totally disillusioned with the other cancer nonprofit organizations out there; what Major League Baseball Hall of Fame pitcher Tom Glavine and then-Commissioner Bud Selig had to do with it; why she does what she does today; and of course, the miracle she experienced. Again, please donate to Kristin's organization, CURE Childhood Cancer, at THIS LINK. No amount is too small, and every penny brings them one penny closer to saving a life. ******* If you enjoy Second Act Stories, please leave us a review here.

On Sept. 28, our friends at Circle of Care will be hosting the only statewide walk/5K run supporting all Connecticut families of kids with cancer. So tune in and learn about their mission and how you can support this unique nonprofit with a a powerful show of unity during Childhood Cancer Awareness Month.
To date, Michael P. Link has the unique honor of being the only pediatric oncologist to have served as president of the American Society of Clinical Oncology. Link, who is the Lydia J. Lee Professor in Pediatric Oncology at Stanford University, appeared on the Cancer History Project Podcast in conversation with Paul Goldberg, co-editor of the Cancer History Project and editor and publisher of The Cancer Letter.In honor of Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, Link revisits what drew him to pediatric oncology, his auspicious mentors, his 2011-2012 ASCO Presidential term—and his concerns about what he's seeing in oncology today.Over the course of his career, Link has seen a childhood cancer cure rate increase from a mere 40% to closer to 90%. But he's concerned about how the field of oncology is being impacted today.In his 2012 Presidential address, Link said:“There is another lesson from our children—that an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. This is a lesson not just from pediatric oncology, but from pediatrics in general. Prevention strategy through immunization has proven to be one of the greatest triumphs of pediatrics and of modern medicine. Rather than diagnosing and treating diphtheria, widespread immunization simply eliminated it as a health problem in North America. The near eradication of measles, polio, and serious infections from H Influenzae is a similar triumph.”He expressed shock about how things have changed in 2025. “I'm a pediatrician, so here I am and they have measles? I mean really, measles in 2025? How is that possible?” Link said. “I never thought I'd be in a position where I have to talk to people about measles and polio and chickenpox as a threat... And measles, it's a matter of how serious your illness is going to be, and if you're immunocompromised it's life threatening.”Other concerns from his time as ASCO President have reemerged—or never really gone away.In 2012, Link said, “But all this newfound insight into these diseases and their treatment is only as good as our ability to deliver what we know. The current chemotherapy shortage is emblematic of the precarious nature of the path between the discovery and the delivery of our most exciting new findings.”Speaking on the podcast, Link called this an issue of “whack-a-mole”—where new drugs go into shortage on a regular basis. “Can you believe that here we are in whatever year it is, 20-whenever the next shortage is going to come and we don't have access to this?”A transcript of this conversation, along with an archive of related content, is available on the Cancer History Project: https://cancerhistoryproject.com/article/michael-link-podcast/

Our friends at Hal's New York are doing something special this month in honor of Childhood Cancer Awareness Month.
If you only listen to one show this year make it this one! With Producer Sean leaving early for INTERGEO, DD was joined this week by Peta Cox for this heartfelt and inspiring story. Our guest was Claire Masikewich. Claire is a seasoned marketing and communications professional at GeoVerra with a passion for advocacy that transcends her corporate career. In May 2023, Claire's career paused when her five-year-old daughter was diagnosed with stage 4 neuroblastoma, a rare and aggressive pediatric cancer. This life-altering event ignited a new purpose: using her marketing expertise to raise awareness and advocate for more research in the severely underfunded area of pediatric cancer. Claire's story is not only one of professional success but also of personal resilience. She has faced and overcome challenges with anxiety and depression, which once felt overwhelming. Yet, with her daughter's diagnosis, Claire channeled her strength and transformed her pain into purpose, becoming a fierce advocate while navigating her daughter's treatment. By August 2024, just before Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, the Strong Like Sloane Foundation—named in honor of her daughter—became an official charitable organization in Alberta. Since launching fundraising efforts in October 2023, the foundation has raised over $155,000 for pediatric cancer research at Calgary's Riddell Centre for Cancer Immunotherapy. Claire is a testament to the power of resilience, personal growth, and the unwavering love of a parent. Her life's journey is an inspiration to all who face personal challenges and a reminder that, with determination and support, we can find strength and light even in the most difficult of circumstances. "You don't know what you're capable of until you're asked to be capable." Music by Zach Bryan!

230: Navigating Childhood Cancer: Supporting families through her own experience - Heather's Story "We've joined a club that nobody wants to be a part of, but the good part is we have the best members." A huge thank you to our sponsor of today's podcast, Begin Health. In this episode, Katie Taylor interviews Heather, host of the Navigating Childhood Cancer podcast and mother of a teenager diagnosed with leukemia, in honor of Childhood Cancer Awareness Month. They discuss the challenges of receiving a cancer diagnosis for your child, managing cancer treatments, including pill swallowing, and navigating parent guilt. Heather shares her family's journey and how she balanced protecting her son while also being open about her experience to support other families. Through her podcast, Heather provides a space for families to share their stories, giving listeners the strength to cope with childhood cancer. Key Insights & Lessons Learned: Pill Swallowing is a Process: Sometimes the goal isn't mastering a technique but simply finding what works, even if it means grinding pills for an extended period. The Importance of Listening to the Child: Empowering the child to make decisions about their care, like how they take their medicine, can alleviate unnecessary stress. Parent Guilt is Real, but Not Always True: Parents often struggle with feeling responsible for their child's illness, but as Heather was reminded, it's not your fault. Sharing Helps, But Boundaries Matter: Heather highlights the balance of sharing personal experiences while respecting her son's privacy, which is crucial when sharing such a sensitive journey. Resources and Tips: Navigating Childhood Cancer Podcast: Hosted by Heather, this podcast shares stories and lessons from families going through childhood cancer.

For Our Children: Warrior Parenting Guest Janet Demeter, Founder of Jack's Angels Foundation and Host of Childhood Cancer Talk Radio Fifty percent of children in the U.S. have chronic health issues, and among these, cancer is the leading cause of death among children by disease. Underlying this diseased state of our children are environmental toxins, which enter a body and accumulate over time to create metabolic deficiencies and imbalances. Such toxins exist in our air, water, soil and food. Parents are stepping up to identify these problems, raise awareness and advocate for systemic change. They are doing so in many different capacities; some are focusing on prevention and others are searching for therapies that are better than “standard of care” - less toxic, safer and more effective. In this episode, Janet Demeter shares her son's brain cancer story and the leadership role she took on within the childhood cancer community after losing Jack in 2012. Janet has learned a lot about cancer research, the shortcomings of the pediatric cancer care system and government policy, as well as what we need to do to be more effective. Janet is the founder of Jack's Angels Foundation, host of Childhood Cancer Talk Radio and a lead advocate for pediatric cancer awareness. She one of many parents who have been creating greater visibility and encouraging a higher level of funding for research into cures for diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) and pediatric cancers in general. Janet leads the effort to pass a resolution designating the 17th day in May as ‘‘DIPG Awareness Day,'' which cites DIPG as the most compelling example of pediatric cancer. This September 2024 interview coincides with Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, CureFest 2024, a new book release, DIPG: Eternal Hope Versus Terminal Corruption, and the heightened focus on children's chronic health trends happening in national politics. The DIPG book is an experiential narrative published by Dean and Wendy Fachon about their son's cancer journey, and below is a link to a must-see video interview with the Fachons – “What is DIPG?” LISTEN TO PARENTS SPEAK ABOUT OUR CHILDREN'S HEALTH Childhood Cancer Talk Radio with Janet Demeter https://toginet.com/shows/childhoodcancertalkradio What is DIPG?

Dr. Corey Falcon from Oshner, Baton Rouge. He works in pediatric oncology at Oshner's. He also does hematology, which is blood disorders. I'll be asking all the dumb questions today. Most of the cancers in children are distinct. Childhood leukemia is the most common cancer in children. There are some types that are similar, but typically the treatments, sometimes they can overlap, but treatments are different. You've got to treat the child, and somewhat, I would think, treat the parents too. The child doesn't know everything that's going on, especially depending on age. One thing that's also important is the siblings. We tell the kids and the families, we're going to be with you throughout this journey. There's some advancements that have been made for treating children. One of the big things is something called immunotherapy. It uses the body's immune system to fight the cancer. It also limits side effects to the body that traditional toxic chemotherapy can cause. Every little bit is better. Dr. Falcon says things are moving in the right direction. September is Childhood Cancer Awareness Month. It is a tough job, but we're fortunate and blessed to take care of these wonderful kids.
Even though an aggressive form of leukemia took his life at age 6, Declan Reagan's story is about living with cancer, not dying from it. In this ENCORE EDITION of Bloodworks 101, his mom, Lauren describes Declan's penchant for pushing limits and breaking rules, and her determination to find a way for him to see the new Jurassic World movie that was set to debut 6 months after he was given just 2 weeks to live. On their side in this impossible quest? A mom on a mission, hope, and Chris Pratt. Contributor Bill Harper says you've never heard a story like this before.
[In Episode 61, part 1 of this two-part series for Childhood Cancer Awareness Month presents two journeys of two children who battled cancer: River Putnam and Elizabeth "Liz" Brooks]Today the rest of Liz's story is shared through the accounts of her parents who had to temporarily say good-bye to their daughter in 2021. They continue the tribute to a daughter their hearts beat fondly for, as they process out loud, grief, faith and a desperate "holding on to hope," amidst such great pain. On the day of Liz's homecoming, what Jeremy and Laura Brooks witnessed seemed to be their daughter's few moments in "the in-between," as it appeared that angels were in full force to peacefully take Liz's soul to eternity. Stories of pain are a part of life. May we listen, learn, and stretch our hearts to have hope and thanksgiving in any and every circumstances. Seacoast Podcast, River and Melanie Putnam and most importantly Jeremy and Laura Brooks dedicate these episodes to the lovely and bright young woman who is now interceding for us who are still seeing dimly: Elizabeth "Liz" Brooks.

Two stories of two kids who fought diligently, positively and with great faith, the dreadful foe of cancer. River Putnam was 11 years old when he began his fight against a rare form of brain cancer. Now, 15-years-old, him and his mom Melanie Putnam (“Mel”) join the podcast to share their story as well as the ways in which they are currently walking through some of the remaining havoc. Elizabeth “Liz” Brooks began her fight against cancer at 12 years old and at 18 slipped away to heaven in 2021. While Liz's story ends bitterly on this side of heaven, her parents and many listeners amidst tears will still agree she is currently experiencing the best possible outcome.Believers in Jesus have faith that He has overcome the world, and that belief brings hope. But in this world each person will have trouble. Pain and sadness are real and as long as one lives, can't be avoided; and no one is ever in the clear of experiencing their own personal nightmare, even those with great faith. Two true stories of beauty from the ashes, those hard-pressed on every side but not crushed, enduring great suffering but not abandoned. One story leading Mel Putnam in a perennial state of thanksgiving for the more years she has with her bright son, River, while Jeremy and Laura Brooks (who also join us today) also have their hearts settled in thanksgiving for the time they had with Liz's and the privilege of being her parents. Often times, however, as a result of losing her, they have to hold on to hope with all the strength they have. Stories of pain are a part of life. May we listen, learn, and stretch our hearts to have hope and thanksgiving in any and every circumstances. Seacoast Church, River and Melanie Putnam and most importantly Jeremy and Laura Brooks dedicate this episode to the lovely and bright young woman who is now interceding for us who are still seeing dimly: Elizabeth "Liz" Brooks.

Welcome to another inspiring episode of the Lighthouse Podcast. We are in week two of Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, sharing heartfelt stories of families navigating the challenging journey of childhood cancer. This week, we have the privilege of sitting down with Mia Bell, a remarkable single mother to three incredible children: Maurice (20), Cory (17), and Chloe (11). In 2017, their world was abruptly turned upside down when Chloe was diagnosed with stage IV neuroblastoma at four years old. After completing the initial treatment, Chloe faced relapse after 21 months. Mia's story is one of unwavering resilience and determination. She sheds light on the significance of maintaining a sense of normalcy for Chloe throughout their journey, incorporating art therapy, yoga, gymnastics, and creating memories with her brothers. As a single parent, Mia shares her experiences guiding her boys to self-sufficiency at a young age while she was by Chloe's side during treatment. Even from the hospital, she maintained consistent communication and made it a priority to verbalize her love for them daily. Tune in to this emotional episode as we illuminate the path of resilience and love that defines the Bell family's journey and find inspiration in their story of strength and purpose.

MDJ Script/ Top Stories for Sept 9th Publish Date: Sept 9th Commercial: Henssler :15 From the Henssler Financial Studio, Welcome to the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast Today is Saturday Sept 9th and happy 56th birthday to actor Adam Sandler ***SANDLER*** I'm Dan Radcliffe and here are the stories Cobb is talking about, presented by Credit Union of Georgia Marietta now joins Cobb in removing controversial books from the school library. State senator renews call for special session on Trump indictment Kennesaw plans to lower millage rate All of this and more is coming up on the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen and subcribe! Commercial : ESOG - Elon STORY 1: School Library Removes Controversial Book Two books, "Flamer" by Mike Curato and "Me and Earl and the Dying Girl" by Jesse Andrews, which were previously available in Marietta High School's library, have been removed in response to a complaint from a Marietta parent. Cobb County School District removed these books from 20 school libraries last month due to "highly inappropriate, sexually explicit content." The removal decision sparked debate, with Marietta Schools Superintendent Grant Rivera initially stating he trusted staff judgment and cited a process for addressing concerns. However, following the complaint, the books were removed from Marietta High School's library. Rivera emphasized his commitment to age-appropriate content and respect for board policy, clarifying that his role is to adhere to established procedures................……... read more about this at mdjonline.com STORY 2: Trump Indictment Special Session Freshman state Senator Colton Moore is urging a special session of the General Assembly in Atlanta to investigate, defund, and potentially impeach Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis for her role in indicting former President Donald Trump and 18 co-defendants. They are accused of conspiring to overturn Georgia's 2020 presidential election results. Moore, representing Northwest Georgia, argues that his constituents don't want their tax dollars supporting what he sees as corruption. He claims that the actions taken by Trump and others were exercising their First Amendment rights to free speech. However, Governor Brian Kemp and most legislators have not supported a special session, leading to disagreements within the Republican party on this issue. STORY 3: Kennesaw plans to lower millage rate Kennesaw's City staff is recommending that the City Council reduce the millage rate from 8 mills to 7.75 mills in the upcoming budget. This decision follows a public hearing on the budget for the fiscal year beginning October 1, 2023, and ending September 30, 2024. The proposed budget of $29.4 million represents a 6% increase from the previous year. Notably, it includes a 3% cost of living raise for staff and relies heavily on tax revenue, with around 80% of the general fund coming from taxes. The largest expenditures are in public safety, general government, and public works. Economic growth and increased property tax revenue have allowed for the millage rate reduction, benefiting most homeowners. The final budget adoption is scheduled for September 18, 2023.........…..(pause) We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.874.3200 for more info.

The event celebrated Atlanta's professional soccer team and was organized in partnership with Scana Energy. The school was selected as the Atlanta United Flags Out School for September, thanks to the efforts of the school's secretary, Stacy Meriaux, who noticed many students wearing Atlanta United gear. During the pep rally, Westberg and Muyumba congratulated the students on the school's new soccer club and shared their journeys to becoming professional soccer players. They encouraged the students to remain confident, consistent, and to embrace the challenges of competition, emphasizing that discomfort can lead to progress. STORY 5: East Cobber Parade The East Cobber Parade and Festival is making a return after a three-year hiatus. The 25th annual event is scheduled to start at 10 a.m. on Saturday. Originally launched in 1995, the parade has become one of Cobb County's prominent annual events, featuring music, costumes, floats, marching bands, and attracting thousands of participants and spectators. The parade and festival aim to foster a sense of community in East Cobb, showcasing local schools, businesses, and community members. The parade will have over 1,000 participants representing various groups and will be followed by a free community festival featuring entertainment, arts and crafts, concessions, carnival games, and local businesses. The event holds special significance for the local schools, with principals and Teachers of the Year being honored as VIPs. STORY 6: Childhood Cancer Awareness Month Marietta city officials have partnered with the Mighty Millie Foundation to declare September as Childhood Cancer Awareness Month. The foundation was established by Nick and Claire Mracek in memory of their daughter Millie, who battled embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma, a soft tissue childhood cancer, and sadly passed away at the age of three. The proclamation aims to raise awareness about childhood cancer, the need for increased funding and research, and to support local families affected by this disease. On average, 47 children are diagnosed with cancer daily in the U.S., making it the second leading cause of death in children after firearms. The Mighty Millie Foundation continues to advocate for research and support for children and families dealing with cancer. We'll be back in a moment Break: Powers - Ingles 6 - JRM STORY 7: Viral One Chip Challenge Following the tragic death of a Massachusetts teen who consumed the viral One Chip Challenge, the manufacturer, Paqui, has decided to discontinue the challenge and remove the product from store shelves. The 14-year-old boy died on September 1 after consuming the extremely spicy chip, which is seasoned with Carolina Reaper and Naga Viper peppers. The challenge encouraged participants to eat the entire chip and endure the extreme heat without consuming anything else to quench the spice. Despite warnings against participation by children and individuals with medical conditions, the challenge gained popularity on social media. Paqui is recalling the product "out of an abundance of caution" and offering refunds to customers who have purchased it. STORY 8: Halloween Hikes Halloween Hikes, now in its 38th year at Chattahoochee Nature Center, offers a non-scary, educational nighttime adventure for families from October 27th to 29th, between 6 and 10 p.m. This year, the event has introduced a more flexible schedule with hiking sessions departing every six minutes, allowing families to tailor their experience. Participants can explore nature at night on paved Wildlife Walk and ADA-compliant River Boardwalk Trail, encountering costumed characters who share insights about their critters. The event also features games, crafts, music, and food options, including a firepit area for families to relax and a cocktail bar for adults. …Back with final thoughts after Break: Teds - Henssler 60 Signoff- Thanks again for hanging out with us on today's Marietta Daily Journal podcast.
