Turning My Cancer Into A Positive
Posted By blinker on January 3, 2010
As a cancer patient I became quite involved in raising awareness for the disease I had, especially for young people like myself at the time. I did so much work that I was blessed to receive an award for my efforts. Funny part is, if you could be a fly on the wall when they called to tell me you would have thought they should revoke any kind of award! I remember the woman from the committee calling to tell me and as she spoke I was in the laundry room of my home. Her words ring in my ears as I think of the story today! “You are such an outstanding mother” she said. Precious words indeed for as she said them I wasn’t just “in” the laundry room! NO! I was trying to hide from my children whom which HAD indeed found me! Yes, I was pressing against the laundry room door with all of my weight in order to keep the child yelling “Momeeeeeeeee” on the other side!! Yes, give that woman an award will you!!
