Prayers for Tiana! Fight the good fight.
Absolutely horrible, coincidentally today is the day my little sister was diagnosed with stage iv lung 8 years ago. Cancer is a mother ’er…..
Prayers for Tiana. I was going to write more but I have lost too many loved ones to cancer to not get emotional.
Our prayers go out to Tiana, may a miracle occur for her.Prayers for Tiana. I was going to write more but I have lost too many loved ones to cancer to not get emotional. And Stage IV, so sad to hear that.
50 years of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology plus being a retired executive in the Biotechnology industry. I have had a few shots of a favorite beverage after reading Tiana’s news. It really hit me. Sadly, I know this stuff.
My late wife of 40 years was diagnosed at Stage IVB, as was my Mom, my Brother, my Mother-in-Law, and my Father-in-Law.
Stage IV doesn’t “always” mean terminal, but at the absolute minimum this is extremely serious. Extremely. Especially so for female cancers. She is a warrior and was an inspiration to my late wife so it feels more personal to me. Cancer always feels personal to me and did so every day of my career. Even more-so for those it claimed among my loved ones,
I wish for her as I would wish for myself and what I learned from my wife and my Mom: don’t let cancer win for even a single day. Fight the fight of your life and never forget that you are still alive. At the very worst, you have to stay alive long enough for something to pop out of clinical trials. Even Phase II trials, because decent results in that phase can sometimes get fast tracked to you. There are a ton of things in clinical trials, and things that can prolong your life. Maybe even cure you. You have to hold onto that. As fans and alums who are rooting for you, we are holding onto that too.
As I posted above, prayers to Tiana. Beyond family and friends, this one feels personal.
It's painful and scary. Like many others, I have lost family members and friends due to this dreadful disease, including a fraternity brother two weeks ago, who coincidentally would have been celebrating his 65th birthday today.50 years of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology plus being a retired executive in the Biotechnology industry.

that is honestly a great idea.SU should raise a pink #4 to the rafters to not only honor her basketball accomplishments but her incredible inspiration to so many. She is a special person who will beat this!
