Stage 4

"Stage 4." That's probably a phrase you don't ever want to hear, unless you're at Universal Stuidos looking for stage 4. But unfortunately, I was not at Universal Studios. I was eating dinner, feeling depressed for canceling my San Fransisco trip because I was sick when my mom told me that my aunt has lung cancer. I was in complete shock. It made my problem seem so minuscule all of a sudden. It didn't make any sense to me because she worked out, ate healthy, and didn't smoke. But I guess cancer didn't care about that, that sneaky little bastard.

We all had lunch at my aunt's house today and that's when I found out....it's stage 4 and it has spread to her liver. My heart is breaking right now after I saw her. She's already been affected by the cancer. She's not as bubbly and upbeat as she used to be. But we're all staying strong and hopeful. Even though it's stage 4, we will do whatever it takes to fight this. Please pray for my aunt and my family.
