Everyone Was There With Us: Travis Scott & Jessica Hammond on Zoe's Leukemia, the Village That Showed Up, and Life on the Other Side

Travis Scott and Jessica Hammond drove an RV to Seattle in the middle of a pandemic with their eighteen-month-old daughter Zoe. Three years later, Zoe was diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia at age three and a half. What followed was months of inpatient chemotherapy, a clinical drug trial, COVID-19 isolation protocols, and two parents who quietly moved into the hospital. In this episode, they share the diagnosis, the village that showed up, and how CaringBridge became the place Travis, a writer, could tell the story as they lived it. Zoe is six now. She won her class's perseverance award. She's doing great.
