| Survivor speech at Green Valley/ Sahuarita Relay for Life 2012 |
I have always wanted to get involved with some type of charity work, find a cause, have a purpose. Well, this year I found mine. In January of 2010, I was diagnosed with a malignant Giant Cell Tumor of the spine. This was not the first time that I had had this tumor, but it was the first time that I had been told it was cancer. I had already had two surgeries in 2007 to remove the first tumor and now I was about to begin the process all over again. Although this time it would not be as easy.
