I still get by.....

I still get by.....
Hi, my name is Hannah and I am 15 years old. When I was 11 months old I was diagnosed with rhabdomyosaracoma in my right foot.

I went through chemotherapy twice, but it didn't get rid of the cancer. The hospital told my dad they wanted to amputate my whole leg and my dad wouldn't let them, so they decided to only amputate my foot. But then unfortunately the cancer came back in my lymph notes and and they had to take two of them out.

"I went through radiation this time and lost all my hair"

They thought that I wouldn't live through this but they were wrong! By the time I turned four, it was all over. I am very glad that it is all over.

"I still go to hospitals once a year"

and I struggle with shrinkage and scoliosis but I get around....... and thats all that matters.
