Dec 2011

I just saw my neighbor doing his yard cleanup. He was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer over seven years ago. He had the surgery and treatments and today?...well he had 12 bags of leaves at the curb and was playing with his dog.

I'm the anecdotal breast cancer survivor. It sucks but keep looking past each level of treatment to the finish. When it's over you can celebrate!
