Holly Taylor was a sergeant in the US Army National Guard, and then became a kindergarten teacher.  She was diagnosed at 37 with stage IV breast cancer after earlier breast health concerns were dismissed.  She is now a stay-at-home mom. In this episode Holly reads her stirring piece “I Want” for Wildfire Magazine’s 2022 “Legacy Stories” issue where she expresses all her wants that she desires for her young daughter.  April and Holly will talk about what it was like for Holly to write and read this essay to her daughter, getting your wishes out of your body through writing, and how Holly keeps a memory legacy box for her daughter while living with metastatic disease.  They will also discuss teaching breast health and self-advocacy with your children.
