At 55, I was diagnosed with Breast Cancer. Had a double mastectomy and my plasctic surgeon BOTCHED ME WRECKLESSLY. IT TOOK another PS 22 SURGERIES TO RECEATE SOME RESEMBELANCE OF BREAST. IT WAS PURE TORTURE!!!EVERY THREE MONTHS I HEALED. THEN, ANOTHER OPERATION PURSUED. FINALLY, AFTER 3 YEARS, IT WAS OVER! I BEAT CANCER AND LEARNED SELF SURVIVAL, GRIT, DETERMINATION ALL FROM JESUS AND IF I HAD TO DO IT AGAIN,SO BE IT!!! I FOR SURE WOULD HAVE HIS STRENGTH, 💯,TO REPEAT ANY SURGERY! PRAISE GOD!
How do you stay fabulous?Strength from my faith is my armor! Without GOD, I am nothing. He leads, guides and provides for me...I have no worries! He maketh me lie in green pasture and leads me be beside still waters so I can REST and restores my soul meaning no STRESS. I walk in valleys of shadows of death, no GLOCK NEEDED CAUSE he protects me, he prepares tables for me in front on my enemies so that I am protected AND DONT HAVE TO COOK. His love, will follow me ALWAYS to prove, at any age, I am fabulous because of HIM!
What would you do with the $40,000?I would first tithe to GOD for the gift he gave me of this honor. My mother passed in July at 88. She adored animals. I would establish an animal rescue in her memory so that precious lost or abused animals would find homes overfilled with love. Then, I would attempt publishing a children's book I wrote about a kitten I rescued 2 years ago. He was named Stormy because he was rescued from a terribe storm. He was so young, his sex was unknown.My heart would smile so v big to see it published. 😊
