Lauren Daniels was diagnosed with breast cancer at age 35 when her youngest child was just one month old.

She had to have three surgeries over a four month span of time, and there were many challenging days during her recovery. She wasn’t able to lift her baby for months after her surgeries.

Despite all that, just six months after her diagnosis she founded the Happily Ever After League (HEAL) to provide support to local mothers fighting cancer. Forming the nonprofit drove her to put her focus on helping others. It is no wonder the acronym is HEAL – it became an important part of her own healing process.

HEAL distributes monies to mothers with cancer who have at least one child living at home, to help pay for groceries, gas, utilities, and medical bills. Additional support is offered to newly diagnosed moms through back-to-school outreach, holiday gift programs and farmer’s market days at the Healing Farm. The farm’s residents include mini horses Butch and Chance, mini donkeys Louie and Diego … and a mini pig named Lord Hamilton.

The Rescuers radio show provides an opportunity to spotlight people who are working behind the scenes to make this world a better place. These people serve as inspiration and idea starters to encourage others to find creative ways to impact their community, their city, and the world.

Host Art Brooks has spent his career in broadcasting, both as on-air talent and in representing the industry as president and CEO of the Arizona Broadcasters Association for nearly 30 years. He was the driving force behind an Emmy-winning series of documentaries on drug abuse that combined a phone bank of 100 seasoned counselors and history-making "roadblock," as every TV station in Arizona and many radio stations broadcast the groundbreaking show on the same day at the same time. He also was instrumental in starting AZ AMBER Alert (one of two states in the nation where broadcasters initiated the program), helped form the Native American Broadcast Institute at Northern Arizona University and consulted with broadcasters in Bulgaria to help build commercial radio as the country was coming out of communism.

Rescuers airs 5:30-6 p.m. AZ time Thursdays on KPXQ-AM Faith Talk 1360, beginning May 7, 2020. Based in Phoenix, it is available internationally online. We invite you to submit names of heroes you think would be good subjects for the show - just message us on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/rescuersradioshow/
