Everyday that I wake up is a great new day! I am a survivor of inflammatory breast cancer, a cancer that is rare and aggressive. I am blessed in many ways.
First because I have a friend who cared enough about me to get me to a breast specialist and an oncologist immediately. I don't know if she fully understands that she saved my life but I know it and will love her forever!
Second because I benefited from all the research done by the American Cancer Assoc. and the donations and support of all of you. Without the proper protocol, including the drugs and agents I and many others would not be here. The old saying is, the longer you live the greater the chance that a new drug will be developed- this wouldn't happen without YOU!
Third, I have so many people, family, friends and acquaintances, who prayed for me, and literally took care of my families every need while I was going through treatment.
By walking and supporting Relay For Life I feel in some small way that I am giving hope and life to others who are/will be in my shoes! Thanks for your support!
