My nephew (Ralph's sister's 3 child out of 4) was diagnosed with bone cancer when he was 5 years old. This past month he passed his 5th year cancer free and is cured!!

My grandmother was diagnosed with cancer about 3 years ago, and has been in remission for almost 2 years.

Ralph's dad was diagnosed with cancer of the throat about 2 or 3 years ago and is in remission.


A woman I worked with and became good friends with was diagnosed with breast cancer, about 6 years ago. After about 4 1/2 years, her cancer came back. She has been battling ever since, and last year was given 6 months-6 years. It has been up and down since, but she has been getting worse recently. Everytime she is feeling well, she travels as much as possible, arund the country and to Africa to visit her daughter who is a missionary. She has a very positive outlook about the whole thing.
