Manage episode 439491081 series 3105660
In this heartfelt and inspiring podcast episode, I had the privilege of chatting with my client and friend Fallon, a mother whose two-year-old daughter, Penelope, was recently diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Fallon shared the unexpected and challenging journey she has been navigating since Penelope's diagnosis on August 1st.
Fallon recounted the series of events that led to Penelope's diagnosis, from initial symptoms like facial palsy and ear infections to the shocking discovery of leukemia cells in her blood work. Despite the difficult circumstances, Fallon's resilience and positivity shone through as she described the daily challenges and emotional rollercoaster of caring for Penelope during her treatment.
Throughout the conversation, Fallon emphasized the importance of staying present and reframing negative thoughts to create a safe and supportive environment for Penelope. She shared her coping mechanisms, including using subliminals, Solfeggio frequencies, and tapping, to maintain her mental and emotional well-being.
One of the episode's significant highlights was Fallon's candid discussion about starting a GoFundMe campaign to cover the substantial medical expenses of Penelope's treatment. Despite initial hesitations, Fallon expressed gratitude for the overwhelming support and generosity shown by the community, raising over $11,000 in less than 48 hours.
As the episode concluded, Fallon urged listeners to donate blood to address the national shortage, emphasizing blood transfusions' critical role in supporting children like Penelope undergoing cancer treatment.
Overall, Fallon's story is a testament to strength, resilience, and the power of community support in facing life's unexpected challenges. Her unwavering positivity and determination to navigate adversity inspire all who listen to her story.
