This is the hardest thing I have ever had to face; but with God, family, and friends, I was able to defeat the beast "for now." Was it easy? No! Do I want to go through it again? No! But after talking with many cancer survivors, I learned that anything is possible through prayer and perseverance.
I did not realize just how difficult this "battle" was going to be and how much I would be tested physically, spiritually, and mentally.
Cancer is devastating, but I chose to put on my armor and fight this beast head-on.

It\'s time to bring this topic out into the open and "talk" about it and realize that no one can get through it without support, family, friends, and faith.
