As parents, we always want
the very best for our kids.
We want them to stay healthy,
but when they get sick, we want
them to get the very best care.t
is the same goal for
everybody who works at St.
Jude Children's Research
Hospital in Memphis.
This weekend is Mother's Day,
of course, and tonight we want o
share a story of a unique mothe,
daughter, Bond Bond made
stronger by the shared struggle.
You can't sugarcoat cancer.
Cancer is the devil,
Ali. The first time she was
diagnosed, it was tough,
but then she was getting better.
Normalcy was kind of back,
and then I had put off go to the doctor
because I was taking care of her and stuff.
And so finally I was like, I need to go.
And then that's when I was
diagnosed with breast cancer.
And then she
was diagnosed the second time ad
she was given basically a death
sentence that she was not goingo
be around to graduate high scho.
It's a word you just never
want to hear, ever. But yeah,
we went through it together,
so we got really close.
And sometimes I forget I had cancer just
because I was so worried about ,
because you can't
fix it sometimes. And that was y
biggest problem as a mom is moms
can't fix cancer, but think you.
Gosh, Saint Jude is Godsend St.
Jude. If it wasn't for
Saint Jude I, we say it
every day that she wouldn't
be here because it's amazing.
She beat the odds with the
treatment at Saint Jude.
She graduated high school,
went to college and graduated in May and
is engaged and going to get mar.
And she is a walking miracle.
I'm always going
to be your mom, obviously,
but my job is done, as in raising her,
and I feel like my husband
and I did a pretty good job
and I'm looking proud at her and
that's what I'm seeing. I'm seeg
hope and a miracle.
I just know there's no dry eye
in there. Not
sad tears, but happy tears of.
Just where she started
in and where she is now.
Cancer made us who we are,
and Saint Jude helped us get through that. So
Saint Jude will always be
part of our family. Always.
Many of those life's moments
wouldn't be possible really,
without Saint Jude, and it
means so much to our community.
