http://survivingstageivmelanoma.blogspot.com/2014_03_01_archive.html
Melanona experiences and awareness and HOPE for those diagnosed with this very deadly cancer of the skin. Sunday, March 23, 2014. Just recently I turned 44. I did not know if I was going to make it to 41. When I was sick, the American Cancer Society began running ads with famous people singing Happy Birthday. It always made me cry. There are more and more warriors who will not see anymore birthdays. Some of our youngest warriors have left us and are fighting right now. Go hug a tree! GO ski a mountain!

EVERY day I am alive is a FIGHT against MELANOMA. I will continue to spread ...

Melanona experiences and awareness and HOPE for those diagnosed with this very deadly cancer of the skin. Friday, January 30, 2015. As you get farther away from cancer treatment, life begins to take on a "regular" pace. And that is just fine with me. BUT, thoughts of cancer are always present. BIG THINGS I have learned:. 1) there are no big things! 2) life is precious! 3) if I don't have enough $ for all my bills, it's ok to have a pile of bills I can't pay. 4) did I say Life is PRECIOUS? Well , it is.
