Chris and Christy gladly hosted Christina White on The Lighthouse Podcast today. Christina and her family live in Kentucky. Christina and her husband, Jason, have two children - Isaiah (age 7) & Moriah (age 10).
Their Childhood Cancer journey began after weeks of Isaiah having an unexplained fever and foot pain that led to a limp. Isaiah was taken to the hospital and diagnosed with Philadelphia-positive B-cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) on March 1, 2021. He was hospitalized for 25 days to implant a port and initiate chemotherapy.
As a pharmacist, Christina was able to navigate insurance issues, side effects, and proper dosing with ease. She even had to teach Isaiah to swallow pills with candy and games. If you are having problems with medication, reach out to your oncology hall pharmacist. They are a great resource to help with any issues!
During this episode, you will hear about the challenges of isolation and the blessing of the people and organizations they have met. In closing, Christina shares her source of encouragement during the journey as well as some practical tips to help you in your journey.
