How I Survive Cancer

I was diagnosed in 2005 with carcinoid tumors and carcinoid syndrome from my gall bladder surgery. I survive mine with the faith of God and the support from my husband J.W., also the wonderful team of my oncologist and surgeon. I am on a injection of sandastatin every month, I keep my head up and stay a trooper all the time.

How I Fight for a Cure

I ask folks who are able to think of all cancer patients when they make charity donations, and keep us in their thoughts and prayers.

Caring Words

When your down and don't feel good just remember laughter is the best medicine of all!
