I felt beautiful even when I was undergoing the worst time of my life


Do you know I was completely bald at one time?
I had ovarian cancer and my doctor in Trinidad gave me up for dead.
She said that no doctor in Trinidad could do anything for me.
My daughter in Miami made an appointment for me with a famous oncologist.
I did surgery and chemotherapy.
All my hair fell out during chemotherapy and my doctor advised me to buy wigs in all different colours.
I did.
I felt beautiful even when I was undergoing the worst time of my life.
All the doctors and nurses made me feel beautiful at the Miami University Hospital - Sylvester Cancer Centre.
I wrote all about my experiences with that dreaded disease in I am Cancer Free - A Memoir.
The book is available on Amazon Universal Link.
