In this heartfelt episode, Janaya, shares her family's challenging journey after her son Tobias was diagnosed with a rare childhood cancer called infantile fibrosarcoma. Diagnosed at three weeks old, Tobias's life has been a series of medical challenges, surgeries, and treatments, complicated further by the COVID-19 pandemic. Janaya discusses the importance of parental advocacy, the emotional rollercoaster of medical diagnoses, and the support systems that helped her family navigate their trials. After multiple rounds of chemotherapy and an experimental drug, Tobias is now in remission. Janaya also offers words of wisdom and encouragement for healthcare professionals and parents facing similar battles.
