Beating Cancer from the Middle

from KFI Featured Segments

Millions of Americans are part of the Sandwich Generation, people who are raising children while also caring for aging parents. For KFI's Heather Brooker, that role became deeply personal when her mother, Barbara, faced lymphoma not once, but twice. For National Blood Cancer Awareness Month, Heather shares her family’s story of cancer survival, resilience, and the everyday challenges of balancing life in the middle. With insights from a City of Hope oncologist and a family therapist, this conversation sheds light on the stress, strength, and hope that define the Sandwich Generation.
