W IS FOR...

"We are chemo Warriors."

MILE 23...LETTER W.

When you have been on the path and have fought...YOU.ARE.A.WARRIOR!

I have a friend that I met through running.  She has gone through multiple battles with cancer.

She is one of the strongest people that I have watched, from a distance, NOT letting this vile disease disrupt her life.

I call her the Warrior Princess.

I know she has "days."  She's talked about it...posted about it...but always embraced it.

"We soldier on and fight it through.  We can't deny, sometimes we cry."

Being a warrior doesn't mean you don't hurt.

It means you embrace the struggle....and celebrate the VICTORY!

For those who are not in the fight, help, support, cheer, those that are, ANY way you can!

We are all BETTER TOGETHER!

So, for all who are going through the struggle...through the battle...as our artist today said, "...fight it through!"  

YOU.ARE.A.WARRIOR!
