As I sit here, literally crying at my desk, I am in Awe. For those of you who don't know, I have a cousin who is going through a very tough time, and was diagnosed with stage 4 colon cancer 2 years ago, and that Woman is still fighting. I can't imagine what she is going through, and I would never want to be in her shoes. I can say that I have never seen someone with as much drive, love, and just plain being an amaing person through a tough situation. Here is a quote she gave to a local news paper that makes me just tingle (also makes me want to throw away every bad thing in my cabinets for me to eat!!!)....
"I hope that I can inspire people that aren't sick to take care of their bodies. You only get one body, and to take care of it as best you can. And I also hope that people can kind of learn just to enjoy the moment."
You see, even though what she is going through, and what she has to deal with, she is the coach of the No. 2 high school girl's basketball team In the state of Missouri. She is also a mother to 2 very small boys. She is also taking chemo, working,does not miss a game for her girls, or a moment for her boys. That in its self it amazing. I can barely do that without being sick! She also has one of the brightest outlooks that I have ever seen in a person going through so much. Just wanted to give her a little credit from me, in my little part of the world. I might not be a news paper article, or she may never read this, but that woman seriously deserves the best in life, and I hope she gets it. Love you Steph.
