Steadfast - determined, unwavering, loyal. My mom was one of the strongest women I have ever known.
She was diagnosed with T-Cell Large Granular Lymphocytic Leukemia and Severe Chronic Neutropenia in September 2004. Mom never let cancer hold her back. But despite her reliance, mom passed away in February of this year.
Mom showed us that you can face adversities with strength, by being humble and poliet, and having a positive attitude. Her perseverance was admirable. She was always been my biggest cheerleader, and I will forever be hers to make sure her legacy is carried on.
