| 0:00.0 | In January 2014, Kim White was 14 weeks pregnant with her second child when an 11-centimeter |
| 0:08.0 | tumor was found in her right adrenal gland. Kim was faced with the heartbreaking reality |
| 0:14.2 | that if she didn't deliver immediately, neither she nor her baby would survive. Her |
| 0:19.9 | son, Hinckley, did not live, but Kim, who at the time of her diagnosis with stage 4 |
| 0:25.3 | cancer was told, you'll be lucky if you make it five years, is still alive and fighting |
