Waking up one day to liver disease and cancer..

One day I was working and feeling fine and the next I could not get out of my bed. It was at this point that my doctors found a cancerous tumor in my liver. I was also diagnosed with cirrhosis of my liver. I was a social drinker, but never drank excessively.

My life was going well with the occasional bumps and challenges. One of the biggest challenges I faced was loosing my beloved husband 4 years prior to suicide. My world crashed. Now, I’m facing my own mortality. I’m frightened, but hopeful to stay alive for my family and my friends to share smiles, laughter and even tears.
