March is about to end. I still have April & few days in May, to celebrate! May 10 will turn my life to either left or right, again. After another series of needles prickings & being shoved to that thing I call tomb-like machine, the Docs will pronounce a verdict: Do I have it again or Not yet? This has been ongoing since 2001. Quite a fight, I should say. Many of those who started the bout with me are now in high heavens. I get to pray for them during death anniversaries. They're quite many to count now. Me? No. I will not be among their numbers. Not yet. I know God is not finished with me. I still have a lot of birthdays to celebrate with my loved ones; got more plans for wedding anniversaries with the only man in my life; will still bring to the altar on their wedding days 4 more out of our 6. Got one granddaughter now. 2 more will be born in May. So, with more reason for me to opt for life in that same month. With God's mercy, I will be up & about untill a baby from our 6th will be born. Why? Because I love life! The life of a Cancer patient.

I know it is not easy to have the courage and fight back. The strength of our mind determines our fate. I am glad for you, you have the courage to fight back. God blesses you.

Faith in God always helps. He knows exactly what's in your heart and what you deserve.

Keep on fighting and enjoy every minute of your life with your family. Stay strong and keep on praying God is merciful and always giving what our hearts desire.

Don't give up! Keep on fighting! With God's mercy, you will beat this and be with your new born granddaughter. And just like you said, God isn't finished with you yet
