Keeping my head held high

Ciara

My name is Ciara I was diagnosed with Brain Cancer in 2010. I was 22. I’m a mother Daughter and friend. I felt that a rug was pulled from under me. Living with a Brain tumor is a whole different game I made a promise to my family that I’d keep fighting. My daughter was hit the hardest she wouldn’t want me to fall asleep before her she always though I wouldn’t wake up. My mom had been my rock I don’t know how it would be finding out your only child has Brain Cancer. We all embark on this journey together the road might have curves and holes but if we stand together we can fight this keep your head held high!
