A CANCER DIAGNOSIS IN 2012 RIPPED AWAY THE LIFE THAT ERICA ONCE KNEW
Seemingly, in the blink of an eye, Erica was diagnosed with what proved to be a very aggressive version of acute myeloid leukemia, in the spring of 2012, while she was still nursing her youngest. Despite her most valiant of fights as a fully admitted in patient, Dr. Erica did not respond to even the harshest of 24/7 chemotherapy regimens known as “salvage chemotherapy”.
Devastatingly, she was awarded a two month terminal prognosis and was denied all further medical treatment aside from palliative care moving forward. However, that didn't stop her and in tonight we'll discuss how she came back from the brink of death to live a full and vibrant life and inspire others to move to greatness through adversity.
