A Story of Hope

This morning while I was going through my emails, I came across an email from a lady named Heather. Instead of summing up what she told me, I would like to copy her email and the link to her video. While I sat there and watched this video I had so many emotions running through me. The point that Heather really delivered was, no matter what you have in your life, you always have to keep hope and keep fighting! This goes out to anyone, not just couples suffering from infertility, but people suffering with cancer, loss of a loved one, depression, etc.... Hope has really helped me through difficult times in my life and it is what keeps pushing me every single day....

Before I post the link to the video, please read this email and if this touches you as much as it did me, please share with friends and family etc.

Hi there!

The reason I have reached out to you is because of your blog! My name is Heather and I am a wife, mother, and a mesothelioma survivor. When my daughter was 3 ½ months old, I was diagnosed with this rare and deadly cancer, and given 15 months to live.  My prognosis was grim but I knew that I needed to beat the odds for my newborn daughter, Lily.  It’s been 7 years now and I feel that it is my duty to pay it forward and inspire others.

I clung on to hope throughout my whole journey with mesothelioma. When you have hope, it makes the battle easier.  I want people to be inspired by me, I want to make them fight; give them something to hold on to when all else fails. That is why I do it.  If I inspire one person, I've done my job.

I'm using my personal story to help raise awareness of this little known cancer, and to provide a sense of hope for others facing life’s difficult challenges.

Here is a video of my story that I am hoping to use as a tool to raise awareness. I would love it if you would be willing to share it on your blog with your readers!
