Thank you to all of my doctors, nurses, nurses assistants, physical therapists, professors, family members, friends, and all else who helped me get through the first eight years as a bone cancer survivor. I wouldn’t be at this stage in my cancer-related journey without you all!"

Stay strong, be happy, and always have hope in your heart." ♥
