She wrote as a caption of a video, “This chair, this view, this exact equal spot… 4 years later. From sheer terror to persevered hope, so a great deal has modified yet so a good deal remains the same. It used to be unreal to sit there and see sufferers going in and I ought to see that I had been thru a similar journey… noticed the chemotherapy suite, the equal ready room, faces were different… I felt like telling the sufferers that there’s HOPE, and I am there on the other side and seem to be at me nowadays I have come in for a visit on the different aspect of the spectrum.”
She also wrote, “It was, as you can guess, a very bittersweet, emotional day. I stepped out, seemed my son in the eye, with the sunshine on my face and thanked the universe for everything.”
