  Welcome back.

  This season,

• 00:14

  we've been exploring what it means to stay resilient and to keep finding hope and strength when life changes in ways you never expected.

• 00:23

  Today we meet Sandy Gardner, and as you'll hear,

• 00:26

  her story reflects what it means to age with Myasthenia Gravis,

• 00:30

  or MG, and adapt through the later seasons of life.

• 00:33

  Sandy first encountered MG through a family member.

• 00:36

  Her brother was diagnosed with MG years before her own diagnosis,

• 00:41

  but when her own symptoms began in 2009, everything changed.

• 00:46

  She was forced to step away from the career she loved

• 00:48

  while finding new ways to show up for her family and for herself.

• 00:53

  Sandy's story is about redefining independence, embracing change,

• 00:58

  and finding strength in every stage of life.

• 01:01

  I'm so excited for you to meet her.

• 01:03

  First of all, Sandy, thank you so much for joining me this morning.

• 01:06

  Thank you for having me.

  Yeah, tell me what your life was like before your diagnosis.
