From Just Surviving to Learning to "Live" with Leukemia with Ashley Camp | Hilary Burns | S7EP1
Ashley was living life and had just gotten her dream job when COVID hit. She grew up as an anxious child, fearful in general, but mostly of being seen and being judged. She started overcoming this in her sales job and was thriving, when life threw her a curveball.
She was working 16 hour days during COVID, felt tired and had a nasty cough. She went to the doctor and had a blood test. When the lab, hospital and doctor called her immediately to come back in, she didn't think much of it. Little did she know that she wouldn't leave her 12 by 12 room for 30 days. No visitors, no nothing. She was diagnosed with AML NPM1 leukaemia and needed to be treated and isolated for the next 6 months.
She was then in remission for 2 years until she had a relapse. She has been in and out of treatment, remission, normal life and hospital life since then. What changed her perspective from anxiety and trying to survive, to really living? Listen to our interview to find out.
Ashley now works with leukemia and cancer associations to help others who are going through cancer. She has a positive attitude and spreads her light with others.
