Wil visited with 2 new friends who are in the hospital today fighting their battles with cancer. Their conversations reminded me of this picture... how only sometimes someone who is going through what you are can really get it. #cancersucks
from: TRUTH 365
Trading Places…Last year we introduced Lily Weaver (left) and Sadie Keller through The Truth 365. Lily was 5 years cancer-free and Sadie was in the middle of her battle. Today the roles are reversed. Lily relapsed and Sadie has finished treatment. We took this photo of the girls today. Sadie lives in Texas but was in Virginia for our friendSadie Murata's Celebration of Life this weekend.
We asked Lily and Sadie what this image represents to them and here is what they had to say.
Sadie says, “To me this photo shows how hard cancer is and how much support you need to face it. Only 6 months ago Lily was there for me as I was fighting cancer. Now, I am done with my chemotherapy, (hopefully forever), and Lily is in her fight again. I am glad I can be there for my friend now. You can’t do this alone.”
Lily says, “I don't understand why kids keep facing cancer. Isn't once enough?”
