• Dear Cancer, you came into my life on May 16, 2013 when my sister/best friend got AML. She fought for a year and 1 month when you took her on June 16, 2014. The pain and suffering you have caused my beautiful sister and I will never be forgotten. You took one of the most important people in my life away and I am never going to recover, she will never hold my hand, she will never walk at my side with her IV pole, she will never hug me, give me kisses and never tell me how much she loves me. You have destroyed my life and for this I will spend the rest of my existence trying to help others fight back the way I helped my sister. (click here to comment)
