Update on my sister, Vicky

Dr. Victoria Luz Estrada. Amazingly determined woman is she. Last year, one week before Thanksgiving, she was diagnosed with cancer. She was scheduled for surgery for the following month. What the doctors discovered was a large growth on her cervix and another kind of cancer in her uterus. Her treatment was very aggressive, as was the cancer. Last January she started her first chemo treatments. For three months she struggled with pain, weakness, nausea and baldness. She then endured three months of daily radiation, which weakened her more. Finally, three more months of chemo, which ended two weeks ago. The final report is in. She is cancer free! She beat it! We are having a party Friday to celebrate her freedom, her renewed health and a bright and beautiful future! Thank you all for your prayers and positive thoughts. Vicky Estrada is healed!
