Stunned.

I just found out that one of Aria's teacher has just been diagnosed with breast cancer and has decided to have a double mastectomy with reconstruction. I'm so shocked and stunned by the news. First off, she's so young, she's maybe in her mid thirties. Secondly, she's such a wonderful person. She's so caring and energetic. She's always been about eating healthy and taking care of her health and that of her family.
I am very glad that she detected it. Her mother also had breast cancer and is a survivor so I guess that made her more aware about her vulnerability to the disease.
News like that makes me appreciate my health and life more.
