Why I Relay
My Reason to Relay
January 14, 2010 I was diagnosed with Multiple Myeloma which is a cancer of plasma cells, a type of white blood cell normally responsible for the production of antibodies. Collections of abnormal cells accumulate in bones, where they cause bone lesions (abnormal areas of tissue), and in the bone marrow where they interfere with the production of normal blood cells. The disease develops in 1?4 per 100,000 people per year. It is more common in men, and is twice as common in blacks as it is in whites. With conventional treatment, the prognosis is 3-4 years, which may be extended to 5-7 years or longer with advanced treatments. Multiple myeloma is the second most common hematological malignancy (13%) and constitutes 1% of all cancers. There are approximately 45,000 people in the United States living with multiple myeloma, and the American Cancer Society estimates that approximately 14,600 new cases of myeloma are diagnosed each year in the United States. My daughter was 2 years old at the time, and all i could think about was her. The cancer was confirmed 4 different times. One doctor said he believed I would not live more than a year. I remember my mom there with me, and her saying No God is going to heal my daughter. I went to my moms church one Sunday and they laid hands on me and prayed. The following day I went to see another doctor and THEY COULD NOT FIND THE CANCER ANYMORE!!!!! My mom cried and said your may not believe this but God healed my daughter. Since then i have been monitored and re-checked every three months and STILL NO CANCER! I did however have a mass in my left breast and was told I had breast cancer. Same thing The power of prayer baby! Hands laid, Prayers Prayed, God Healed me from the crown of my head to the souls of my feet. Praise God! You will be able to find me in the prayer tent @ the relay for life this September 7-8th in Auburn Ma. So blessed to be alive, August 23rd 2012 we celebrated my daughter's 5th birthday! So thankful to be able to be a part of this beautiful little girls life. Praise God!!!! My daughter def. has an amazing gift from God. She has the gift of "healing hands". She is going to be in the prayer tent with me and readily available to lay hand and pray over anyone who would like prayer. On top of my own experience with cancer I have had 3 grandparent pass away from the disease. Breast Cancer (Grandma Rose) Lung Cancer( Grandpa Geer), and Leukemia (Pa) This cause is VERY close to my heart. Please show your support! Thanks & God Bless!
This is my beautiful daughter and myself. She is such a blessing!!!
