21 years ago I as diagnosed with a reoccurrence of breast cancer. It meant I had no choice but to proceed with a mastectomy immediately. As I was preparing for my upcoming surgery we discovered I was pregnant. Completely overwhelmed, we had so many decisions to consider. 8 months later our daughter was born. A fighter through my surgery and recovery and a joy through my life. She’s smart, loves adventure, and is strong and independent. Olivia made me a mother. I cherish her. We’ve gotten to walk through life together as not only mother/daughter..but also survivors
