Bonnie’s Story | Hope is Here | Season 1 | Episode 1
At age 56, Bonnie was a wife, mother, grandmother, president of an oil company, and leader in breaking through the industry’s glass ceiling. She also became one of the millions facing a 16% survival rate. Her initial prognosis was grim. Most doctors provided little hope, but Bonnie eventually found a thoracic surgeon willing to help, telling him, “If I am going to die from this disease, I don’t want it to be because I did nothing!” After a 14-hour surgery and multiple rounds of chemotherapy and radiation, Bonnie became a survivor with a new purpose in life.
