Annie Brandicourt, a friend of Williams, runs down the hospital halls pushing Williams on July 24, 2023. This tradition the friends have formed is a highlight during hospital stays. “It brings a lot of joy because it’s exhilarating,” Williams said. The joy is not only felt by Brandicourt and Williams but all the onlooking nurses who smile, feeling Williams contagious positivity even during moments that challenge her.
