We are so thrilled to be starting season 8 of the Lighthouse Podcast! First and Foremost, we wanted to make you aware that our posting schedule is changing slightly. For this season, new episodes will drop on the first Tuesday of each month. We encourage you to go back and listen to the helpful episodes from Season 1 to 7.
Now, let us introduce you to our guests for the first episode of this season - high school sweethearts - Zach and Karli Lansdell. The Lansdell’s currently reside in Rome, GA, and have one outdoor-loving, huge heart, and all-boy named Levi. Their journey with childhood cancer began when Levi was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia on August 10, 2022.
The journey was long and intense, as they spent over 200 days in the hospital. They did amazing things to make the hospital feel like home and keep Levi comfortable and happy.
They have now moved into the post-treatment plan, and that brings its own challenges. Through their journey, they learned to advocate with gut feelings, ask for help, and be honest with your mental health. Both Zach and Karli leave us with some encouraging advice that can be taken to heart right away.
In the opener, Chris and Christy mentioned that our retreat applications are open for both families walking through childhood cancer and volunteers. You can learn more by visiting our website at www.lighthousefamilyretreat.org
