My story is about my friend Lulu. She was diagnosed a few months ago in early 2007 with Stage IV Breast Cancer that metastasized into her bones. She has three children: a boy just turning seven and twin girls who are five. As the mother of three youngsters, she put their well-being above her own for over a year and ignored the warning signs of the disease. Now, the prognosis is not good and she may never see her children grow up. Nevertheless, she has been taking on the chemotherapy like a woman preparing for a long fight.
Her husband recently sat down with their oldest son and told him that mommy was very sick and there was a chance she might not get better. The boy looked into his father's eyes and told his dad not to worry, that everybody was supposed to see God someday. These children are a testament to my friend's love and commitment to her children. All of her family and friends are praying that God will not want to see Lulu soon. She is an amazing mother and a wonderful friend and we'd love to add her to the list of breast cancer conquerors.
