CanCare's Survivor Day

Yesterday, I had the honor of attending the CanCare’s 20th Cancer Survivor Day Luncheon with MD Anderson’s Survivorship team.  The keynote was Navy Captain Mark Kelly, astronaut, cancer survivor, and husband of Gabby Gifford.  He talked about his career as a Gulf War pilot, astronaut, and the Arizona assassination attempt killing 6, wounding 13, and leaving Gabby with a gunshot to her head.  His message was about the power of passion, courage, hope, and resilience when life has us fighting back.  But he also told a love story between Gabby and himself, and their love of life.  Fall back in love with life today!
