Description

In this episode, host Kayla Keenan interviews Alyssa Johannes and Renee Rudolph, two mothers whose daughters battled cancer. They discuss how they met and the support they provided each other throughout their journeys. Alyssa and Renee also talk about the Rockin' Warriors, a fundraiser they started to benefit the Indy Foundation and other organizations that helped them. They share the importance of small gestures of support and the impact they can have on parents going through the challenges of childhood cancer.

Takeaways

• Support from other parents who have gone through similar experiences can be invaluable during the cancer journey.
• Small gestures of support, such as sending a text message or providing a meal, can make a big difference for parents.
• Starting a fundraiser or nonprofit organization is not necessary to make a positive impact; even small actions can help support families dealing with childhood cancer.
• Connecting with other families and organizations can provide a sense of community and support during difficult times.

INDY is short for "I'm Not Done Yet," a phrase often said by the late Kyle Strand during his courageous battle with colon cancer. Kyle's four-year journey was both extremely challenging and profoundly beautiful. Though he lost his battle in July 2017, his legacy lives on through his two dying wishes: to establish the INDY Foundation and to inspire others to live every day to its fullest. In August 2017, the INDY Foundation was born, continuing Kyle's mission to support and uplift cancer warriors everywhere. Find more information here: www.indy-foundation.org
