What Cancer Took… and What We Built From It

Ellie survived pediatric cancer. Hallie lived it as the sister of someone who almost didn’t. In this episode, they open up about what cancer really did to their lives—from both sides of the story. The fear, the growth, the moments that stuck with them long after it was over. But they didn’t stop at surviving it. They turned everything they went through into something bigger—creating a fundraiser that won their Dallas chapter and raised over $120,000.  This isn’t just a story about cancer. It’s about what happens after… and how two people took something painful and turned it into real impact. Presented by Wipe Out Kids’ Cancer. Kids Shouldn't Get Cancer But When They Do...
