I was diagnosed on December 4, 1997 at the age of 37.

I have learned, through my experience with cancer, sometimes you have to stay on your knees, in prayer, in order to stand. God is my refuge and strength.

These have been the hardest years I have ever been through, since I found out and took treatments for cancer. These have been my closest amd most rewarding years with God, since I had to depend on Him for each and every day.

God doesn't go by man made charts or statistics. Don't allow the doctor to determine your life length in years or what is going to be tomorrow. God loves you!

When You Believe

Many nights we prayed
With no proof anyone could hear
And our hearts a hopeful song
We barely understood
Now we are not afraid
Although we know there's much to fear
We were moving mountains long
Before we knew we could

There can be miracles
When you believe
Though hope is frail
It's hard to kill
Who knows what miracles
You can achieve
When you believe
Somehow you will
You will when you believe

In this time of fear
When prayer so often proves in vain
Hope seems like the summer birds
Too swiftly flown away
And now I am standing here
My heart's so full I can't explain
Seeking faith and speaking words
I never thought I'd say

There can be miracles
When you believe (When you believe)
Though hope is frail
It's hard to kill
Who knows what miracles
You can achieve (You can achieve)
When you believe
Somehow you will
You will when you believe

They don't always happen when you ask
And it's easy to give in to your fear
But when you're blinded by your pain
Can't see your way safe through the rain
Thought of a still resilient voice
Says love is very near

There can be miracles (miracles)
When you believe (When you believe)
Though hope is frail
It's hard to kill
Who knows what miracles
You can achieve (You can achieve)
When you believe
Somehow you will
You will when you believe
You will when you believe
You will when you believe
Just believe
You will when you believe
