| I AM THE
PICTURE OF SURVIVAL I remember when I got the news and wondered if I were going to die, but I didn’t and TODAY, I AM THE PICTURE OF SURVIVAL I remember watching the red colored chemotherapy liquid flow through the tubing into my veins and wondered if I were going to vomit, but I didn’t and TODAY, I AM THE PICTURE OF SURVIVAL I remember having long pretty sista locs and then having none and wondering, how I would look with a wig, but TODAY, I AM THE PICTURE OF SURVIVAL I remember my first and last radiation treatments and being warned that I would have radiation burns—that never happened to me, and TODAY, I AM THE PICTURE OF SURVIVAL I remember wondering when this would all be over while knowing that it never would be, because EVERY DAY I AM THE PICTURE OF SURVIVAL I remember thanking GOD for my new hair, my new cancer free body cells, and my new outlook on life and yes, even my permanently tanned skin areas because they remind me that I AM THE PICTURE OF SURVIVAL I remember thinking, “I will never put a period where GOD puts a comma,” because having breast cancer was a beginning, not an end and I AM THE PICTURE OF SURVIVAL I remember thinking, “Oh GOD what about my children, my husband, my family and my friends?” Through all of this I have realized that today I can stand here and say to all of them, and you, that I AM THE PICTURE OF SURVIVAL
