However, the possibility of infertility due to chemotherapy and radiation made her hesitant about the treatment options.

What role did Kevin play in their decision-making process?

Kevin played a pivotal role in exploring alternative treatments. While the doctors suggested chemotherapy, Kevin felt an unshakable impression that chemotherapy wasn’t the right option for them. He felt a strong calling to search for alternative, non-toxic therapies, which led them to pursue other methods.

Why was chemotherapy not the right choice for Courtney and Kevin?

Although Hodgkin's lymphoma has a high cure rate with chemotherapy, Kevin felt that chemotherapy was not aligned with their values. Additionally, the risk of infertility caused by the treatment was a significant concern, especially since they were newly married and considering starting a family.

How did the couple handle the pressure from family and others about their decision?

They faced a lot of pressure from family members and others who were concerned about the potential consequences of their decision. However, they stuck to their beliefs and chose to give alternative treatments a chance, agreeing to a three-month trial period for their chosen path.
