The story is about being diagnosed with aggressive breast cancer and becoming pregnant at the same time. It is only 700 words long - and voting helps my sister in-law on her way to getting her story published.

If you don't have time to read the story, please just go ahead a vote -- there is a synopsis below - but I can't do it justice in 10 lines.

here's the short story
they had a baby boy a few years after they married.
They tried and tried for another baby for 5 years, but decided to adopt, as it always was a plan.
As the adoption process almost came to a close - she felt a lump in her breast
Turns out she was pregnant (thus sensitive breasts) and found a tiny tumor
It was an aggressive cancer - most doctors suggest an abortion and treatment.

At City of Hope - they found a doctor who was familiar with OB-GYN-ONCOLOGY
Chemo, Chemo, Chemo - Baby Born (Healthy) -Adopted Child becomes part of family - More Chemo - Hair loss, Surgery, Surgery..

Two years since the ordeal- a healthy family of 5.

Vote and help get this story out, and provide hope to women who must endure for their families. My sister in law knows that stories she read gave her hope.


Thanks in advance for all who read this and/or the story and took a minute to vote.
Best of health to you and your family
