I contacted Lisa to see if she'd allow me to interview her to help spread awareness. She agreed and I was completely moved by her interview. She was so incredibly honest and courageously shared with me her hopes and fears during this tough time.
I can't say enough about what an amazing woman Lisa is. Here positive attitude and outlook are uplifting and inspiring! Take a look below at excerpts from our interview:
***This post is part of a series to help spread awareness and raise funds for The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. I've been nominated as a candidate for "Woman of the Year" by the organization and have committed to raising money to help fund life saving blood cancer research and patient services. Over the last several weeks, I've met family members of those who have lost their battle with cancer; I've spoken with people who have been diagnosed and are still fighting; and I've interviewed survivors who have opened up their hearts to share their stories. Their stories will be posted here.

Lisa, you are an amazing woman. My thoughts and prayers go out to you. God bless both you and your husband.
Keep up the fight Lisa!! You mentioned not having another 26 year old to talk to and I wanted to mention ImermanAngels.org. They provide free 1:1 pairings of cancer fighters with survivors in the same situation and cancer. Check out my feature sstory about the group on this website or contact the group. It really helped me knowing another person with the same cancer, same age, same situation!!
