For our last episode of season five, Chris and Christy hosted Cory and Lix Mixdorf. The Mixdorf family has five children - Miles (age 14), Madelyn (age 12), Mason (age 11, Meyer (age 6), and Monty (age 5). Their cancer journey began when Myer was diagnosed with Medulloblastoma at four.
From the beginning of the journey, they decided they didn't want this diagnosis to negatively impact their family and marriage. They chose to prioritize time together as a family and a married couple, no matter the circumstance. During the journey, they experienced an incredible community and many blessings.
In closing, Cory and Liz shared some personal advice about walking the kids through trauma, not hiding their emotions, and accepting help when offered. Last but not least, they encourage families not to waste the story God is writing in your life.
As we end season five, we have to take a moment to say "thank you." Thank you for listening each week. Thank you for sharing the podcast with friends and family.
