This is Paulette's powerful message…
It’s All In The Attitude
I AM a FIGHTER. I never thought it would be me. Sometimes I feel like I cheated, because it was God who come to me in the middle of the night and whispered in my ear, that I have breast cancer. I’m inspired by it because I knew then I would survive, becaise God came to me with the news. God trusted me with this test, and I don”t want to disappoint HIM. I was 47 years old, with a strong family history of breast cancer, I never had a mammogram in my life. Well not until My Father came to me to go get checked, because I have the dreadful disease. I found myself fortunate. Because of my close relationship with God and my obedience, I caught mine early. It was stage 2, however, it was already grade 3…which meant it was a very angry, very mean, very aggressive cancer. Was I frightened? Not nearly as much as I was angry! For me it was all in the ATTITUDE, and still is. Give me a reason, ANY reason to go out in the public topless, bearing my beautiful scars! I am stubborn and I am strong. Cancer was not going to take that away from me.
My motto was I’ll take this bull by the horns. Yes, it might throw me around a bit and knock me to the floor every once in a while, BUT, after everything is all said and done, I WILL BE THE ONE LEFT STANDING! I walk by faith and there is my strength. I will walk a thousand miles come March 2016 for all those who went before me. For all those who participated in trials so that I had better treatment options. I will walk a thousand miles for all those yet to follow. I will walk to support all those who are unable to physically participate in walks themselves. I will walk for my 4 lil cousins who lost their mom to cancer at the young tender age of 32. To show my empathy and compassion for all those who have lost a loved one to this disease. I will walk a thousand miles for the women who have lost everything in the process of going through treatment. For the common bond that all fighters share. I will walk across the country topless, for myself and for others! I will walk because I’m celebrating LIFE!!!!! I’m celebrating hope for a cure to end all cancers!! Lasf but not less I will walk for my eight babies, I need them to know they can do all things through Christ Who strengthens them….. Who said bald and breastless isn’t beautiful and sexy?!!
