Your recent article about the Ohio woman battling cancer and carrying a child was very inspirational. From personal experience I know that dealing with cancer is hard not only for the patient, but also for the family. The courage she has is unbelievable. There would be many more cancer survivors if everyone had the strength she has.

Finding motivation to push oneself and not dwell on the awful negatives is an extraordinary characteristic that I greatly admire. Hearing stories like hers really shows how trivial our everyday problems are, and makes us focus on how privileged we are to be in good health. I truly wish the best for Michelle Lang-Schock and her family.
