A Story of Resilience and Advocacy
When Kelly Holm was diagnosed with stage 4 melanoma, he faced not one but two near-death cardiac crises that should have killed him. This is the story of how he refused to die, fought against a broken healthcare system, and chose education over litigation.
From the baseball diamond to the hospital bed, from songwriting to self-advocacy, Kelly's journey proves that impossible is just a word waiting for an apostrophe.
