By Kaden Peebles
The author is a three-time cancer survivor, a juris doctor candidate and the co-founder and president of “The Unseen Faithful” a non profit organization for siblings of pediatric oncology patients. Kaden Peebles has phenomenal resilience in the face of near insurmountable odds. Plunged into the world of hospitals, chemotherapy, needles, blood counts, and the delicate balance of killing cancer while not dying, Kaden Peebles shifted into her new identity as a 17 years old with cancer. She reflects on how her relentless charge to survive cancer with her family, healthcare team, and community by her side, and how it has shaped her young life, guided by the belief that what might take her body could never defeat her spirit.
