The Day That Changed My Life - I Survived Cancer 12 Times

Amazing! Simply amazing! I found another cancer survivor who we hope will bring you great hope and lots of inspiration. Her name is Brenda Emer she shares her journey with cancer - breast cancer and then some. Here's a brief bio as copied and pasted directly from youtube.

Brenda has been battling cancer for the last 16 years. She was originally diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer, and since then has battled several different kinds of cancer. She is a warrior and is the true definition of inspiration. She has recently been enrolled to participate in a clinical trial, but when she went for her preliminary testing, her doctors found that the cancer had spread; this time it is located in her brain and liver. She is currently undergoing radiation treatments, as soon as the radiation is complete she will be starting a new clinical trial in hopes of getting the cancer in remission.

More importantly we invite you to share with everyone you know. Someone may know someone who needs to hear this.

While each journey is unique, we all share a common theme - cancer changes our lives forever.

The Day That Changed My Life - Farewell Donna Summer & Robin Gibb

This week was quite a week for the music world. We have lost two musical icons of the 70's Disco Era. The Disco era was an upbeat, fun, dancing era where the music is still popular to this day with samples being used by the number one musical entertainers. Both Donna Summer and Robin Gibb journeys included the fight of multiple cancers.

Donna Summer famous for her songs Bad Girl, Enough is Enough, Hot Stuff, On the Radio, Love to Love you Baby, I Feel Love, Dim All The Lights and many more. Miss Summer a breast cancer survivor lost her battle with lung cancer on May 17, 2012.

As a big fan of the BeeGees, it was tough hearing the sad news. The Gibb family deals with another loss of the Brothers Gibb. The BeeGees were a major part of the disco era, they had a distinctive sound that was embraced by all (if you are honest enough to admit it :-) We loved the BeeGees with their harmonious falseto hits. Robin Gibb passed away from colon and liver cancer. While news of his health seemed grim, Robin made a brief comeback from a coma to the delight of his family and fans.

While each journey is unique we all share a common theme, cancer changes our lives forever.

The Day That Changed My Life - Cancer of the Liver

The liver is the organ that makes protein which is important for clotting along with other functions. It filters the blood from the digestive tract before it moves on to the rest of the body. In addition, it metabolizes drugs and detoxifies chemicals.

Hepatocellular carcinoma is the most common type of liver cancer almost always occurs after cirrhosis is present.

As always, our goal is to share the journey of those who have been diagnosed with cancer as it may offer an important key for survival - hope
