Easter/My Birthday

Today is my birthday!
This year it fell on the same day as Easter!
So I want to thank my Brother today, for making my life easier. For dying for me so that I can live again. For making cancer a little less scary. 

Recently I have got surgery, I had to get a shunt put in my brain . Oh and I started radiation again, so I guess you could say I've been pretty productive.
I have a pretty hard time feeling much of anything with the exception of symptoms from the cancer.

That's really all I have to say today.

  10. Hi Rachel, I have found your blog because your cousin was in my 2nd grade class (long. long ago) and her mom has mentioned you a time or two on facebook. I am writing to you today to thank you for your courage in facing cancer. My mom was just diagnosed with lung cancer that has spread to her lungs, liver, lymphs and now her brain too. I love seeing you beat the odds everyday and I am amazed by your strength in this fight. I hope that my mom can find the strength to fight this as well. Praying for you!

  11. Hi Rachel! My name is Dani Emerson and I'm 18 years old and am currently in the middle of writing a book about cancer. I would love to talk to you about your experiences if you ever have time. I think you are a great candidate for the character in this book. If you are interested you can email me at demerson740@gmail.com anytime you feel like it. I am very excited about this book and think you are a wonderful person that I would like to use for this book. Let me know! :)

  12. I have read this post so many times, and every time I read it I want to reach out to you, hug you, and give you my health and strength so you can continue your fight with more. Then I realize that the health and the strength you possess is powerfully and miraculously given to you from above, and I sit in awe, and I want you to know you fill my heart and soul with love and it brings me to my knees in prayers for you. I hope and pray your miracles keep coming and want you to know what a miracle and an angel you are to me and so many others. We love you! ��
