Cancer and Health

As I sit here reflecting about life and reading a lovely blog about Meaghan I'm thinking about how hard her fight must have been. I just saw her blog today and am completely obsessed. Even though she did pass away in April of this year I find it incredible that her husband is taking the blog on, to keep her memory alive and complete her bucket list himself- for her. That is incredible. That is love.



My family has been plagged with cancer as well. My great grandfather pasted away with prostate cancer, my grandfather pasted away with leukemia, my aunt pasted away with breast cancer, my grandma pasted away with ovarian cancer and one of my closest aunt's has battled and won the fight (for now) with ovarian cancer. And that was just in the past 5 years.

That is crazy, so much loss. I have learned to love and tell the people that you love, that you love them. I don't know what is going to happen tomorrow, and I don't know who can pass away next from something small or something big. I just know that I love the people that I do, and I tell them.

To anyone who reads my blog... thank you...

And to anyone battling cancer, I salute you, and I know it is a hard thing to overcome, I've seen it first hand, attack the people I love the most. Just been thinking about things... My mind doesn't stop...


..... Love Tanya
