It warms my heart to say that: I HAVE OFFICIALLY COMPLETED CHEMOTHERAPY. With God, my family, and my nurses/doctors by my side I had the strength and power to achieve this feat. All that remains now is a few scans and ringing THE BELL. Then, I will have officially done it!

I have completed quarter 3 of chemotherapy treatment. This was definitely the hardest of the three, due to the wear and tear on my body from all three rounds combined. With my family, doctors, and God by my side I am feeling well and in good spirits❤️🙏‼️

On July 26, 2023, my world changed. “You have lymphoma.” I’ll never forget those words. After, 5-6 straight days of chemo for four rounds, thousands of prayers, and a little girl telling me to JUST KEEP SWIMMING, I’m 20 months cancer free. God is Good! #justkeepswimming

One year ago today, I rang the bell signifying I was cancer free. With my 12 month check up scans next week I will not officially declare I’m one year cancer free just yet, but today means too much to me to not remember it. Thank you to all who supported me then and now!
As of today, I am officially cancer free! I am forever grateful for the care and support I received from the doctors and nurses at Weill Cornell Hospital! Thank you all for the outpouring of love throughout this journey. I can never thank you all enough. VICTORY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
