They got a little emotional and so I worked on getting the smiles and laughing going again. I was successful and the last time I saw the student they were smiling and happy! And my heart was feeling all the pride and awe in them!
After 15 years of trying to finish my undergrad, I spent the week before finals in and out of the ER. During finals I was diagnosed with Endometrial Cancer. I graduated Magna Cum Laude the next weekend from Western Michigan University. I am now blogging about my experiences of fighting cancer & living life after in hopes of being able to help others.

Feeling Good!

Awesome Nurses!
After my port removal and saying goodbye to my chemo nurses before moving away from Michigan. Wouldn't be doing that without them!

Silliness

Something to remember and return to. A good day!

365 Things to Smile About Day 362. All the Feels!!
As the end of my internship comes so does the high school program I'm working with. I had a student who had to leave early come up to me to tell me, in their way, that they loved what they learned from me. I told them how proud I was of their improvement and hard work.
