Jordanna Bialo: Strength in the Face of Chronic Illness and Caregiving
Manage episode 497520485 series 3649477
In this powerful and deeply personal episode, I sit down with Jordanna Bialo—a mother, wife, and healthcare worker from Toronto—who has endured over 25 hours of surgery in just five years, including a double mastectomy with DIEP flap reconstruction, a total hysterectomy, and a thyroidectomy. Living with Cowden Syndrome, fibromyalgia, PTSD, treatment-resistant depression, ADHD, and more, Jordanna opens up about what it means to navigate life with chronic illness while raising her 7-year-old son and helping care for her father as he battles cancer.
She shares how the support she received from Nankind during her cancer treatment made a lasting impact, and why she’s now documenting her journey to create a life record for her son and future generations. Jordanna also offers heartfelt advice for others facing health challenges, caregiving responsibilities, or both—reminding us that we’re never as alone as we think.
This is a story of pain, persistence, vulnerability, and grace—you won't want to miss it.
