Hattie's Cancer Journey

After about a year and a half of chemotherapy, radiation and multiple surgeries, she was declared cancer free in December 2014.

Surgeries to remove the tumor and take a bone marrow sample and meetings to go over scan results were scheduled for Monday the 29th. We met with some friends on Saturday and danced in the park. We prayed with friends at church on Sunday and tried our best to be hopeful and not let our minds run away with worst case scenarios. So much happened so fast. It was quite a blur.
