MY STORY

user_story_field

i am the only child of a survivor.i have been afraid of some things in my life,but nothing comes close to this breast cancer.when mom was diagnosed i cried for two weeks straight.i said to her,why couldnt it happen to me,i am stronger than you.i was so devestated,i fell into a deep depression.i then made up my mind that there is no way i am gonna live if somethign happens to mom.i had thoughts of suicide and thoughts of running away.i couldnt handle it.i tried to encourage mom,but i was actually a little angry at her,why?i dont know.cancer is a thief and a heartbreaker.every three months she goes for catscan and bonescan.i wonder when the rollercoaster ride is going to end.i want off now....i have faaith in God.i thought i was so tough,till i met this awful monster called cancer.
