Angela Goodrich, a mother of 10, recently passed away from adrenocortical carcinoma, a rare cancer affecting the adrenal glands. At 45, she was diagnosed after experiencing abdominal fullness and swelling. Despite starting chemotherapy, she wished to raise awareness of the disease. Goodrich died peacefully surrounded by her family just one day after sharing her shocking diagnosis. Her husband, Matt, described the experience as blessed, highlighting the family's close bond amidst the tragedy. Goodrich's story underscores the significance of recognizing symptoms and the importance of community support in health journeys.
It was definitely a huge shock ... (but) we're going to get it figured out.
I think sharing in a journey binds people together and gives the information out to help other people as well.
It was a peaceful experience... We are so blessed to have had her in our life.
The swelling was pretty bad.
