There goes my sister dressed in her Pollera de Darién ... my youngest sister convinced her to go the a black latino heritage event ... she went with my youngest sister and my nieces and had so much fun. My sister is a realist and tends to be a bit pessimistic at times especially with what she is facing ... but after her awesome response to the treatment and the results of her recent scans she is more accepting of her situation and more determined than ever to fight back ... she has always been a healthy woman ... never engaged in any risky behaviors non smoker, non drinker a MD by vocation ... she IS STRONG and I would just die - I won't be able to handle it and don't even want to think about it like that...

From left to right my niece Iriana, my sister Carmela, My niece Ariza and my sister Rosita... my brother Bobby was taking the pics... I am glad she decided to go to this event after being shut-in for months she has returned to work even and is doing/feeling great.... I am forever thankful for my miracle.

How amazing! God Bless you and your family...always! I have never seen such strong people who have had so much to overcome and yet have not lost faith and hope in such horrible times... You and your family have indeed received miracles and as always you pay it forward with your insight and your support...

Thank you for this and many other stories you have posted...
God Bless!

Thank you Marie ... we have a long road ahead and I panic for her quite often and cry into my pillow but I believe in her miracle ... we are strong in love and in faith and believe that hope dies only with our last breath ... I was debating whether to share or not but then I know that when God blesses me or mine or anyone I know or hear of I will pay it forward .... it is my testimony. Thank you so much for allowing me to share.
