Surviving cancer



Just a few days ago the Brittish 27 year-old Jade Goody died of cervical cancer. Her battle was followed by thousands. She was brave in facing death. It was especially touching to see her strength and positive attitude facing the deadly illness, since I see the same in my sister who has ovarian cancer. She turns 31 this year. Last year in november she got her diagnosis and has since undergone two operations and seven sets of chemotherapy. The doctors have now given her, against not so positive odds, a good prognosis. She will make it! I can now breathe normally again.



This is me shaving my beautiful sister's last straws of hair off in Febuary 2009. Not everybody can pull a bald head off, but she totally can! Bald and beautiful!
