We at The Paw Relations are honoured to join in with Milo and Alfie from The Cat's Meow and all our friends from all over the Internets in supporting LIVESTRONG DAY, remembering those that are courageously battling cancer and those who have sadly lost their lives to this dreadful disease.
Everyone has had their lives touched by Cancer in one way or another, whether through helping a loved one fight, battling Cancer yourself or having to say goodbye to someone far too soon.
Cancer is a horrible black cloud that can cast it's shadow far over peoples' lives. Living beneath such a cloud is frightening, exhausting and emotionally draining. Mum had her own scare with Cancer recently and was very lucky to be given the all clear. But living under that cloud, even for a few weeks was something the Mum would never wish on another person.
~Amanda~
On the 9th June 2010 a very special lady lost her fight against Cancer. She battled with such strength and dignity that we never thought it possible that she would ever give up that fight. Even when they news was bad, we all clung to that small sliver of hope that maybe, just maybe the doctors and consultants were wrong and she would prove it to them. We only new Amanda through the wonderful social media of the internet and parenting forums and sadly only had a few fleeting face to face meetings with her. But today is for Amanda and the countless thousands like her, fighting, winning and sadly losing everything to this disease.
Let's make Cancer history!
