Hi Amanda, congratulations on your 1 year anniversary! Gosh what a year its been for you! You've been through so much and yet you continue to shine and inspire us all...thank you for being such a brave warrior.

You are right, only those who are in this predicament can truly appreciate what it's like...the losses and the sacrifices, and yet the extreme joy and thankfulness that we are still alive to watch our children grown and experience living.

You talk about hope, and I recently read this comment regarding hope that I'd like to share with you...

"Hope puts a smile on our face when the heart cannot manage… Hope puts our feet on the path when our eyes cannot see it… Hope moves us to act when our souls are confused of the direction….

Hope is a wonderful thing, something to be cherished and nurtured, and something that will refresh us in return… it can be found in each of us, and it can bring light into the darkest of places…
Never lose hope… "



Thank you for sharing your reflections of the past year and congratulations on making it through with such determination and courage! Heres to many more wonderful years to come, and of course a cure to breast cancer asap! Love Celeste?
