Earlier in 2010 my great aunt was diagnosed with three types of cancer. She is currently living with bone, bladder, and breast cancer. When I purchased my t-shirt, and bracelet for the BCA week, the only thing I thought of was what my money was going towards. All of the money CHS and KHS raised was donated to Susan G. Komen to help find a cure for people just like aunt bet. Aunt bet has been living with cancer for a few months now, but she is fighting it with a very positive and brave attitude. We all know that God is on our side and she will pull through with flying colors.
Before I was born, my other great aunt, aunt ruthie, was diagnosed with colon cancer. I don't know much about it and how she got through it because I had not been born yet. All I know is that she is here with me today and she is healthy, to me that is all that matters. When we found out that aunt bet was diagnosed with those three types of cancers, we knew God was on our side and with the right treatment, prayers, and the support of family and friends that she will make it.
When I visited aunt bet last weekend, she looked great. Her hair was growing back, she wasn't that sick, and she looked like herself. Every time I get to see her I thank God that she is doing better and how well she has progressed. Like I said, we all know that she will come out of this with flying colors, it's just a matter of time!
