Marie's Story

When Marie finally heard the words, “you have cancer,” it was both devastating and strangely relieving. After more than a year of unanswered questions and symptoms, she finally had clarity, but also the painful realization of how serious her illness was. Today, Marie is getting used to her new normal after her initial cancer treatments, and she shares that the hardest part is the uncertainty of not knowing what the future holds, often finding herself fearful to plan ahead. In the face of that unknown, she has chosen to focus on living fully in the present and cherishing each day.
