Why I fight?
Two years ago, I received devastating news and was diagnosed with cancer. In that moment I opened my heart to God and prayed that if he gave me the strength and courage to battle through, I would be a warrior in his honor. Flash forward to today and now I’m delivering on that promise and entering a new fight on my own terms. I didn’t have a choice two years ago, but today I do. I’m doing this for all those that have ever been afflicted by any form of this terrible disease. I’m doing this for all the people who feel like their world has just been flipped upside down and are wondering if they’ll ever be the same again. I’m doing this to show the world that a diagnosis is not the end of your story. I’m doing this to prove to myself that I have come back stronger than ever before. Most importantly, I’m doing this for all the patients who need our help right now. Thank you and God Bless.
