A Utah mother of five with Stage 4 lung cancer underwent surgery to remove her right lung and has been placed on the transplant list, with ongoing hospitalization and care.
A 33-year-old mother of five was killed when a stray bullet struck her in the back during a street brawl outside the Ooh La La Lounge in Crown Heights, Brooklyn. She ran into the bar for help and collapsed in a restroom; a 34-year-old man was wounded and survived. Police detained two men who were later released as they search for the shooters.
Kourtni Smith, a 34-year-old mother of five from Maryland, who has been diagnosed with terminal cancer, is using her experience to raise awareness and encourage other women to seek medical help. Smith was diagnosed with stage 3 invasive lobular carcinoma in 2021, which progressed to stage 4 and has now spread to her brain. With only a few months to live, she is focused on making memories with her family and preparing for the end. Smith hopes her story will inspire others to overcome their fear of going to the doctor. She has established a GoFundMe to help with funeral expenses and is working on a children's book for her young son.
