Autorenporträt
Kristi lives in Bend, Oregon, and is a cancer survivor and fighter. She was first diagnosed with Stage 4 breast cancer in December 2021. The cancer had spread to her lymph nodes and bones. At that time, she was 37 years old and a single mother to a nine-year-old boy, so the only path forward for her was to fight. Although her breast cancer was under control after 12 rounds of chemotherapy, in the fall of 2022, she was then diagnosed with brain cancer. Kristi underwent radiation to target those tumors and continues infusions to this day, along with countless medications to keep the cancer at bay.Her cancer journey has been life-altering, not only for herself but for her friends and family. Most affected by her diagnosis was, and still is, her son. Having to explain fatigue and possible hair loss to her child was a hurdle so large that, if she had a book like Corgis Conquer Cancer, it might have alleviated some of the worry and heartache.Kristi and her son enjoy walking their Corgi, Stella, together, paddleboarding the beautiful lakes and rivers of Central Oregon, and watching movies, either at home or in the theater.
