Unique Journeys

_Embrace the Journey_ Peony Quote - My Cancer Chic

Today I salute all the warriors fighting against cancer as well as those fighting alongside them. It is exactly a year since I was diagnosed and I am so grateful that I am cancer free today. But my heart is also so sad today for those still fighting this horrible disease and for those who have lost loved ones. Some days I feel so lucky and some days I feel – why me? My heart aches for the young mom who has to go again for another round of chemo and radiation; for the mom who lost her son way too young; for the kids who won’t know their dad growing up. It is so unfair! But today I choose not to let the unfairness of this life steal my joy. This is my journey and not one cancer journey looks the same. I am so grateful for every second I get to spend with my loved ones and for this opportunity to share my story.
