MOMENTS when Death Looms: Heartbreaking Conversations and Finding Strength in the Face of Cancer
Our interview today with Casey, an award winning Cancer-fighter and Survivor! Checkout what Casey has to say,
My name is Casey Kang Head. I am a 3x survivor of acute lymphoblastic leukemia. I am an Author, personal trainer, Yoga instructor, Yoga for oncology certified, Cancer Exercise Specialist, PN Level 1 Nutritionist, Restorative Yoga, Trauma Trained and lifelong learner. I am dog mom to Lily. A 3x cancer survivor from a rare children’s cancer I had at 31 years old. Here is the short story version. At 31 I was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (a rare childrens’ cancer). 4 months into treatment I had a stroke & seizures went into a medically induced coma for 3 days. I had to relearn how to use the entire left side of my body(yes, walk, talk and function) while still going through treatment. My treatment protocol was 18 months long. During this time I settled affairs. Had hard conversations with friends and family about dying. Sat with them in tears, just holding space. I waited 4 months…..before the letter of compassion that we had to write to the FDA & drug manufacturer was approved, because it was an immunotherapy not yet approved to use or for my cancer.
I had 4 rounds and by some miracle worked. .After that I had a stem cell transplant. Yes, I have two different types of DNA now. Yet about 6 months later I relapsed again.
Another 4 rounds of immunotherapy and we waited to see if it would come back. This interview is a must-watch for anyone who has experienced struggling with cancer and leukemia or suffering in this long journey!
See ya' over there!
