After struggling with alcoholism for years, Tom’s health had taken a toll. It all came to a head in March of 2021 when he was told he’d need a liver transplant to survive. That conversation marked the start of his sobriety journey.

Following his liver transplant eight days later, Tom was extremely weak. Depending on his nurses for the simplest tasks was a turning point for him.

“That was the point where I thought, I’m going to work at getting myself stronger now. There’s no better opportunity in my life to get in shape.”

Every day, Tom worked to push himself and get a little stronger. When he returned to Jefferson City following the transplant, he joined the Sam B. Cook Healthplex and began working with exercise specialist Kay Benward. Together, they worked little by little to rebuild his strength.

“I got the feeling that everyone who worked there was really invested in my success, and Kay was at the forefront of that. Life got back to normal again, and it became really fun going.”

Today, Tom is stronger than he’s been in years. He’s committed to honoring his donor through every new adventure.

Just recently, he hiked 22 miles in St. Louis to support veterans. And following that, he celebrated his birthday by going skydiving.

“My donor family gave the greatest gift in their darkest hour. He didn’t get to live his full life, so now I take him with me on all of my adventures.”

After losing her mom to breast cancer at 41, Erica Chapin knew how important regular screenings were. But when an MRI led to a biopsy in 2022, she almost skipped it. She had been through the process before because of her dense breast tissue.

However, her care team encouraged her to follow through, and that decision changed everything. The biopsy showed she had early-stage breast cancer, still contained within her milk ducts.

Erica turned to her friend, Dr. Reed Cope, a radiation oncologist at Ellis Fischel Cancer Center, to talk through her new diagnosis. When it came time to make treatment decisions, her surgeon, Dr. Emily Albright, didn’t hold back.

“She told me we could do a lumpectomy and radiation,” Erica recalled. “But it will come back, and it will kill you.”

Erica made the difficult decision to move forward with the mastectomy, and ultimately, it was the right choice. The surgery revealed how aggressive her cancer was, spreading through most of her right breast in a pattern that imaging hadn't fully captured.

Her recovery wasn’t easy, but her friends and family rallied behind her through it all. It was even harder on Erica’s 4-year-old daughter, who didn’t understand why her mom couldn’t pick her up or lie next to her.

As she healed, Erica thought about what came next. She wanted to be there for others going through difficult journeys of their own. So in January of this year, she joined MU Health Care as a business support coordinator in emergency services. She’s also pursuing a degree in social work with plans to move into patient experience.

“I want to help patients feel supported, not just as patients but personally,” Erica says. “Sometimes that’s about listening. Sometimes it’s about translating what’s happening so people feel less overwhelmed.”
