I believe in a future without cancer!

I am a two time Survivor. I believe that one day no one will hear the words, "You have cancer!"

On May 4, I will be cancer free for 3 years!

I know I am one of the lucky ones. Many of the people who sat next to me at my treatments were not as lucky. They do not get to celebrate yearly cancer free anniversaries with their families like I do.

My life is still filled with doctor's appointments, tests and constant worry of hearing the news, "The cancer has come back." Every time I have a sore throat the doctors worry it is cancer, every sore leg sends me for bone cancer tests, head scans every time a head ache doesn't go away. But still I am the lucky one.

Even though I am no longer fighting cancer in my body, I will always be fighting it in my mind. The constant worry of not being there for my children is unbearable.

I will do the Relay For Life with my family and friends on May 29 to help find a cure for cancer. I want to know cancer will not take me away from my children.

Please help me in this fight. Please make a donation. Every dollar raised really does make a difference. Thanks for your support!
