2024 Paint the Paper Pink Magazine

Page 66 2024 PAINT THE PAPER PINK Lincoln Daily News Oct/Nov 2024 struck again in February of 2023. After trying chemotherapy for a year, covid struck again in January of 2024 and the Oncologist decided that Tina’s health was failing so chemotherapy was discontinued. She had received enough treatments to give her a 10 percent chance of the cancer recurring, much the same chance given to other women with the same cancer and treatment plan. Tina will be on the chemotherapy pill for the next 5-7 years to try to keep the cancer from returning. She follows up with the oncologist every three months and sees the surgeon every six months. Tina says her “faith in God keeps her hopeful that the cancer will not return.” She takes it one day at a time and is grateful for every second she has. [Lesleigh Bennett]
