Why I am in Relay For Life

Cancer; what an ugly disease. We've all lost people in our lives to it, and also know people that have survived it. It's time to find a cure so there are no more losses!

My name is Angelina. I have lost my uncle to cancer a few years ago. He was my mothers little brother. And to see my mom go through that heart ache was so hard. I want to help find a cure so that no one else has to feel the heart ache of losing a family member to something so deadly. My one sister is a survivor. She was diagnosed with cervical cancer. Luckily they caught it before it caught her. I thank God for such miracles. My mom and step dad lost a dear friend to cancer not too long ago. My mom’s best friend died of lung cancer a long time ago; her words: “I have never smoked or drank in my life”. Cancer is a very very ugly mean heart braking disease. For these reasons and many others I am in Relay For Life. I hope we soon find a cure and many people can live longer and not have to worry about this insane disease. In memory of my uncle and all those others who have lost their battle to cancer, WE ARE RELAYING TO FIND A CURE!!
