Every summer, Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield in #Maine is honored to partner with the MAINE CHILDREN'S CANCER PROGRAM to recognize courageous Maine kids who have battled childhood cancer or other serious medical conditions as Anthem Heroes at Hadlock. This weekend we honored Jackson of Kennebunk, who ran the bases with his sister Sophia before the May 25 Portland Sea Dogs game at Hadlock Field while players and the Sea Dogs mascot Slugger gave them high-fives. Way to go, Jackson, we are rooting for you! https://lnkd.in/gh-r97MA

To me, this story illustrates how genuine mentorship has lasting impact on people. Mitchell Robinson was obviously greatly influenced by Butch and recognizes how his mentorship and coaching helped him reach his dream of playing in the NBA. Give me more stories like this every day. If you need a mentor, go seek one out, and if you’re in a position to mentor someone else, invest time in them. #mentorshipmatters
High school basketball coach Butch Stockton lost his wife, Dawn, in September to metastatic cancer. His former player, New York Knicks center Mitchell Robinson, had visited Dawn every day she was in the hospital. At her funeral, Mitch invited Butch to come live with him in New York. Stockton accepted the offer — and the two have been roommates since the start of the season.

Sue's story is remarkable! This month's blog from The Treatment Trend Co highlights the unique bond between a teacher and her students and the profound impact of a cancer diagnosis on both Sue and her classroom. The resilience, positivity, and strength people show during the most challenging times always leave me in awe, and Sue’s story is a perfect example of this. Read Sue’s story here: (https://lnkd.in/g2DyTHCk)
When we first met Sue at a conference where she was a guest speaker, her vibrant and infectious personality immediately captivated us. Her joyful spirit was unmistakable as she tried on our compassion socks, particularly highlighted by her choice of Christmas reindeer socks, which she proudly wore to the evening gala. The more we spoke with Sue, the more we realized her story needed to be shared. As mothers of young children, we understand the special bond between teachers and students. Sue's dedication to her students while battling her own cancer journey is truly remarkable. 🌟 Discover how Sue's unyielding spirit and love for her students shine through in her battle against cancer.
