Just received some very sad news.
Shortly after I was diagnosised I went on a cancer walk. All kinds of cancer. I was still emotionally a wreck but I thought I needed to do this. I met a very inspirational lady named Cheryl, she had just reached her 2 year anniversary and was just a ray of sunshine. She was not her2 by the way but a breast cancer survivor. It was like god sent her directly over to me cuz he knew I was weak that day and I walked that walk feeling like a new person and thought that I will not let this cancer stop me. Well Cheryl passed away last night and I just needed to share it with people who understand. Stupid cancer. I am so sad but god has a special angel and I am so happy that I got the pleasure to meet such a wonderful person. When I was told her cancer was back I knew that she would beat it but her blood counts were too low to receive additional chemo.
My prayers go out to her family. She just became a grand mother last week. She was 52. Lets all prayer that they find a cure for this horrible disease soon!
