LANSING, Mich. â In May of 2007, Katy Sanchez (Potocki) and Christy Acevedo (Brown) would have been standing just feet apart from each other in the Perry High School gymnasium getting ready to receive their high school diplomas. More than a decade would pass before they would be that close again, and for a reason neither could have ever imagined.
Sanchez married the love of her life in May of 2017. Ten weeks later she was diagnosed with a glioblastoma multiforme IV after her optometrist found elevated intracranial pressure during an eye exam. She had a CT scan completed, and the tumor was removed four days later.
