Tonya,

Everytime I read your posts they bring tears to my eyes...I know how important the little lives are that are affected by this diesese. I was 4 months pregnant with my 2 1/2 year old daughter when my mom was diagnosed and I had so much stress from the ups and downs of the diesese. Keeley my daughter is my mom's first grandchild and she begged for years for a grandchild (I was 35 when I had her) The first thing my mom said to the doctor when she got her diagnosis was "but I'm going to be a gramma!"
My biggest concern was that Keeley know her gramma and know what a truly special person she is. We have been fortunate that she has been cancer free for 2 1/2 years and Keeley spends lots of time with gramma.
Please wish your little niece a Happy Birthday for me I am sure her Daddy is looking down on you all during all the special times.

Hugs,
Dani
