In this March 11, 2016 photo, Kim and Phil Vaillancourt are interviewed at their home in Tonawanda, N.Y. Shortly after learning she was pregnant, Kim was diagnosed with aggressive brain cancer, and was rushed into surgery to remove two tumors that doctors said could have soon killed her. She wears an eye patch now to improve her vision, and a scarf because some of the hair on her head was shaved, but is postponing the chemotherapy and radiation, considered her best defense against the cancer, until after the baby's birth.
