Summer Germann - Founder & Creator of Brave Gowns: Custom Children's Hospital Gowns
from Cancer Actually F**king Sucks · host CAFS
We are so excited about this week's guest! Summer Germann created Brave Gowns 10 years after losing her little brother to a medical error from fighting childhood leukemia. She knew that the hospital gowns that children patients were provided with could be so much better - more comfortable, practical, allow kids to have more privacy, and way more fun! Brave Gowns give patients hope, happiness, and laughter during what can be a difficult and dark time in the hospital. In this episode Summer talks about being an older sister while her little brother Mac fought a rare form of Leukemia, the rollercoaster of emotions that her and her family endured, how she still connects with him even though he is in heaven, how she got started with Brave Gowns, and so much more.
