World Cancer Day
Written by Olivia Uphoff
My incredible mom beat cancer at the tender age of two; and despite being told by countless doctors she could surely never be pregnant, here I am, 23 and healthy!
Pregnancy for her body wasn't easy, but my amazing mother never complained. She has always taken life with so much joy and faith. Despite unfathomable health issues, my mother is so much more today: She is healthy, strong, independent, beautiful, loyal, hilarious, an awesome cook, a dog lover, a wonderful wife and the person I most strive to emulate.
She is the embodiment of resilience, and as I start to build my own life, I am incredibly confident knowing she is, and always will be, part of me." — Olivia Uphoff, San Diego

Wow. I didn't know you blog too. This is a very motivational and inspirational piece. May God continue to bless and keep your Mom. I love love success stories. And yes, God's report supercedes the doctors report.
