HAPPENING TODAY: IU Health in Carmel and Indianapolis is hosting free head and neck cancer screenings. For speech language pathologist Jenna Porter, helping with the screenings is personal.
CARMEL — Julia Porter was drawn to her career as a speech language pathologist because of the ability to interact with patients and follow them over time.
"Looking back [at] that moment, life is pretty much divided into the before cancer and after cancer time period," Porter said."It's just a lot of trying to figure out how to live my normal life, which wasn't normal anymore and still doesn't feel normal to some degree," Porter said."I do also say we're all a little different and we're all going to experience this differently, but we did all hear those words of you have cancer," Porter said.
