A Facebook post from when she began her two-years-long battle with cancer.

“So… Today I began the journey of my life. Some of you know, and for those who don’t… I have breast cancer. Yes… This disease… it does not know who it chose to mess with (and it’s clear to you, my reader, that it will regret it). Today was my first chemotherapy session out of 16… The war on my life has begun.

Last night I initiated my bolding ritual… For those who don’t know this ritual, it is the shaving of my head… It was very emotional. My brother and all my sisters… yes, all of them (through Skype my sister Dorice from America was able to join) were with me. And my two older nephews and a couple of dear friends were there as well. That was very empowering and demonstrated to me the amount of support I have. So thank you all: to my extended family who is always interested and always willing to help, to my community, and neighbors. Here we go! To victory! To life! The fight for my life is beginning!
