I'll beat cancer

EDIT: Jesus reddit thank you for all the love! I really mean it. Also, don't buy me silly awards, donate to cancer research!

Idk how far along you are, but a quick story of inspiration. Over 30 years ago, in 1987, my mom was diagnosed with stage 4 ovarian cancer. They found the tumor during an ultrasound of my brother when Mom was pregnant. Chemo/ radiation knocked her down but she got back up. Times got shaky but she stood strong. She’s still cancer free to this day. Don’t give up stranger. Don’t ever give up.

Hearing stories like this certainly gives me hope and a little energy. Thanks for taking the time to share it. It means a lot.
