Never Give Up

Published on February 22, 2017 in Share Your Story

It has been almost a year, August 17th, that my beloved wife, Gail Parham lost the heroic battle with brain cancer after 6 months. She was found to have stage 4 melanoma in March and fought it after 2 surgeries and immunotherapy but lost the fight. She never gave up. I also have 2 step-daughters who won the fight last year with ovarian cancer and breast cancer.
