She’s now an integrative health practitioner and host of Not Today Cancer, and together they’ve turned survival into a mission to help others heal with courage, humor, and hope.We explore how two diagnoses reshaped their marriage, what faith looks like when the future feels uncertain, and how they both found strength in surrender.
