a game plan for survival I did chemotherapy I had surgery and I actually just finished up about a month ago with my radiations I feel great I can't even complain every day I wake up with joy in my heart just because I I'm just so blessed this is not the first time McCray has had to rebound from this disease my mom was diagnosed with breast cancer so in the back of your mind you're always thinking okay it's close to home there's a chance that you might get it I understand my disease completely and what I need to do to stay proactive I have been a Survivor from day one I'm thankful that
