“With my mom being a cancer survivor, she influences me to never give up because even as she went to her treatments and her doctor appointments every day, there wasn’t one day she would not be there for me. She never stopped being my mom and my friend. When I got the wonderful news that my mom was cured of cancer, I started jumping up and down and crying tears of joy. It was the best feeling ever.”

What is one thing that you would change about their world?

“One thing I would change about the world is to stop having wars. The world needs to learn how to live in peace with each other and help one another because one day we’ll need help and if we treat others the way we want to be treated, there will be people out there that will help us.”
