  • Ep 298 Jody Hudson's Mission Created by Alex, Her Daughter's Dying Wish
    Jan 21 2026

    Jody Hudson's story is a symphony of love-one that inspires, empowers, and reminds readers to never give up on life or those we love. When eleven-year-old Alex complained to her mother that her legs hurt, her mother, Jody, thought it was just growing pains. But for the next ten years, Alex battled with what perplexed doctors deemed a medical mystery. Refusing to let this ambiguous label define her, Alex researched and sought out medical professionals who might help her. Jody took up Alex's baton and has been a Lyme disease advocate and speaker since her daughter's passing. She brings a powerful, hope-filled perspective to podcasts, connecting deeply with audiences through honest storytelling, faith, and resilience.
