My best friend was diagnosed w/stage 4 esophagus cancer in feb. of this year. When first diagnosed she weighed about 150 lbs, 5'7". And as of today she is 83 lbs soaking wet! She is currently in the hospital; had a feeding tube inserted two days ago. I know our time is limited...so I have been in much need for any sort of inspiration and/or music. I looked up this song because she and I once listened to this Martina McBride CD; while she was going thru dialysis (3 years) and a kidney transplant. Yes,she is a fighter! Anyway, I looked up the lyrics of this song, have not heard it for years...and then saw the meaning of it. Certainly fits my situation, however my friend is 48, wife of 25 years, 2 sons, first grandchild due in March of 2012, she is not a teenager, but too young for all this. I dedicate this song to her.
