Tomorrow marks the end of a very long journey. After over two and a half years, Saturday, July 30, at 5 p.m., I will take my last dose of chemo. This journey was filled with twist and turns, hills and valleys, tears and love. There are so many people I need to thank, but in fear of missing someone, I would just say thank you to all that helped me through this journey with your love, friendship, generosity and support. As I face my new normal, I will embrace my chance to live life.
A Rage Ignited
So cancer, tomorrow you lose your battle against me, a battle you knew you could not win. Thirty days ago, you, being the coward you are, decided to attack my little sister. Now the world will know what a coward you truly are. You think this will break my resolve? I have two words for you: HELL NO!
All you've done is ignite my rage, a fire that was lit Jan. 13, 2014, and has now turned into a raging inferno because of your cowardliness. I will be by my sister's side every step of the way, knowing the pain you are causing her, feeling her pain as if it was my own.
When my sister is lost to your brutality and I have to say goodbye, not only will I know she is at peace in her Lord's kingdom, but my attention will be turned to you.
A Mission Accepted
You see, cancer, I am a person who will fight against you every day. I will help researchers find ways to defeat you. I will stand beside my brothers and sisters holding their hands as we take you on.
I have accepted your challenge and will fight for those who can't. I will fight for the brave souls that lost the fight, and I will fight alongside the warriors that will defeat you. You have inspired the wrong person in the wrong way. Mission accepted!
