In the sixth month of treatment she got a fungus in her lungs although her cancer was in remission. It took her to death's door.(Chemo had knock out all of her defenses.) They gave her less than a week to live but God had other plans for our Mindy. She became one of the 10% to survive that type of fungus. She is now in her fourth year of remission from the cancer. She just turned 15 in February.A.O.
