Haiti

I was very saddened to hear the news about the recent quake in Haiti. Almost the whole city of Port-au Prince turned to dust. Hundreds of thousands of people have been killed and injured. Thousands are still trapped in the rubble. It is just so heart-breaking.

It was a gloomy day of my life as well. The news of the cancer’s return seemed to turn all my hopes and dreams to ashes.

But I remember thinking to myself: People did not have a chance to fight for their lives when the quake struck – everything came to an end within a matter of minutes. People could not fight against a quake. But I have a chance to fight against the disease. I may not win, but at least I still have a chance.
