Jenny Ahlstrom, a Utah mother of six, is now cancer-free and helping patients worldwide find life-saving treatments with the help of artificial intelligence. She was diagnosed with multiple myeloma at age 43 and underwent years of aggressive treatment, including two back-to-back stem cell transplants.
