Crystal Sanford, M.Ed., M.A. CCC-SLP, wears many hats, including special education advocate, speech pathologist, entrepreneur, author, and cancer survivor. In 2014, Crystal was diagnosed with Multiple Myeloma (a rare blood cancer impacting the bone marrow). Now she is a two-time cancer survivor with a passion for empowering everyone to thrive in the midst of life's challenges.
✨A few highlights from the show:
1. Multiple myeloma can't be cured yet, but it is treatable. It is becoming a managed illness that many people are learning to live with.
2. Some doctors recommend that patients with multiple myeloma have no more than 2 stem cell transplants during the course of their treatment.
