My name is Tonya. I'm a mother of 2 great boy's Zachary and Myles. After I had my last son. I almost died. To find out I had stage 3 Ovarian Cancer I was only 23 year's old. I thought my life was over. After major surgery I survived that cancer. Then in 2009 I was diagnosis with Breast Cancer. Again I was thinking what am I going to do? My older son Zachary told me that I was the strongest women he know and I could do it. Well it's now 2014. I have had 8 operations and I hope only 1 more to go to be cancer free. The way I look at things is. I'm not giving up. Everything I got dealt with has made me a stronger person. I have my boy's, a strong family and the love of my life by myside. I can do anything that gets in my way. I now look at it as not the end. It's just a bump in the road. I will go over it and keep on going. One thing I would like to say to other Women and Men going through Breast Cancer. Life throws everyone something we just caught this. Think of something or someone that always makes you smile and feel good. On the day's that are bad. Always remember what makes you smile. Mine is my son's. I hope this can help someone as it did me.
