A retired assistant principal turned cancer patient is getting life-saving care from his former student—now a doctor. Ken Schreiber, diagnosed with nasal cancer five years ago, was stunned and honored when his high school soccer coach-turned-oncologist, Dr. Andrew Coughlin, became his physician. Their bond, forged on the field and strengthened through decades of education and community, now saves lives. Dr. Coughlin, who practices in Omaha but roots in Council Bluffs, finds deep fulfillment treating hometown heroes like Schreiber. As Schreiber celebrates five years cancer-free, their story is a powerful testament to mentorship, resilience, and the healing magic of returning home.
