Shakira Porter, who likes to be referred to as Kira and California HealingStrong Group Leader, faced an unexpected pancreatic cancer diagnosis at the age of 47, despite feeling like she led a seemingly healthy life. She reflects on her childhood in Hawaii, with an abusive alcoholic father, and recreational drugs, she also shares how faith began to play a part in her upbringing.
Navigating the maze of modern healthcare, Kira shares her insights on being proactive. From the discovery of a pancreatic cyst to the recommendation of a distal pancreatectomy, her story is an important reminder of the value of seeking multiple medical opinions.
Kira's involvement with the HealingStrong community highlights the priceless role of support systems in the healing journey. This episode is not just about battling cancer, but about empowering listeners to understand the intricate connections between body, soul and spirit.
