Cancer, we're coming to get you!
MY STORY....
"I admire people that have Cancer fight it,without a fuss.I couldn't cope.Im not strong enough.I haven't got the courage.It would break me.I would give up without a fight,the cure is worse than the desease" Thats what I remember saying on many occasion. Anyway these things happen to friends,friends of friends,family sometimes. Dont they ?
In March 2012,IT HAPPENED TO ME !!
I sat in an office and was told I had Stage 3 Breast Cancer and if I didn't get treatment with immediate effect I was going to die.Cold.Just like that,pure and simple.They had to be like that for it to hit home I guess.
My world fell apart (in every sense).My siblings had to watch their "kid sister" go through the most horrible side effects,along with the rest of my family and friends.My big sister Kim had to watch the nurse stick me over and over again,week after week,to try and find a 'good' vein to use for Chemo and various other drugs.She was there to hold my hand for over 100 hospital visits.Patrick had to help me at night when I was too weak and disorientated to make it to the bathroom on my own.My fight and treatment continue until this coming September 2013.18 months in total !
I share this with you,not for sympathy,but because if we can save someone,just one person,having to go through what I went through,then it will all be worth it. So please please sponsor my sister,Kim and I for this years Race For Life.Thank you
