her name is jerry shepherd. here's her story. >> my name is jerry shepherd. heard the words, "your son has leukemia." in an instant, we fell apart. our son, maddox, was 2 1/2 at the time, and my heart ached to think of the journey he'd endure. the devastating news didn't stop there. soon after, i was diagnosed with breast cancer, while my little boy was in treatment for his cancer. as i fought my own battle, it would be my brave son that gave me courage. thankfully, 2012 marked the end of both of our treatments. maddox is 9 years old and in remission, and i am cancer free. >> yay! we're so excited. jerry is here with her husband, brad. her son, maddox, now 9 years old, and daughter, danica, who is 8. keep your blindfolds on, okay? i'll give you the green light when it's ready. ready, maddox? >> yeah. >> okay. stand by. here is jerry shepherd before. all right. let's see the new you. come on out. >> wow! oh, my gosh. beautiful. gorgeous. >> are you ready to see your beautiful wife and mom? >> ready. >> take off your blindfolds, everybody. >> oh, my goodness. >
