You ever realize mid-conversation… that you didn’t want to die?You just wanted the pain to stop.
This is the story of how my best friend’s secret battle — one I never even knew about — ended up saving my life.
📍 September. A backyard. Two best friends and one life-changing conversation.
Reese is spiraling, silently planning her exit from life — until Mrs. Jefferson, her best friend's mom, sits her down and drops a truth she never saw coming:
Gabby, her ride-or-die, the girl who makes her laugh at 2am… once spent four years fighting leukemia.
And never said a word.
This episode is about the moments that change everything — how someone else’s hidden battle can unexpectedly hold up a mirror to your own.
It’s about what we miss when we assume we’re alone. And what we gain when we finally let someone love us back to life.
If you've been feeling stuck, hopeless, or like no one sees you — listen to this. Then send it to the one person who might need it even more.
