LeeAnne is a Cancer Survivor, Podcast Host and Entrepreneur. In 2015 doctors found what they thought was a cyst after a routine surgery. After a few tests it showed that it was a malignant, very rare sarcoma tumor located in her pelvis. Chemotherapy and Radiation were useless against this aggressive cancer. In 2016 after a 9 hour surgery they finally removed the 6”x4” tumor along with her rectal muscles, leaving her with a permanent Colostomy.
Her podcast “The Beautiful Bag” is a window into the stories of survival from many inspirational men and women who have ostomies, along with tips and tricks of living with an Ostomy. She has inspired so many people, including me to tell my story, which is how I met Leeanne. She invited me to be on her podcast and tell my story for the first time.
