“Cancer”. It’s not just as astrological sign anymore.? This is the sobering headline in 24-year old Amanda‘s blog. Journaling life since her husband was stricken with Leukemia last year (he’s 25), Amanda does a brave and wonderful job of sharing her experiences with the world, telling us what its really like to have cancer so young.

Amanda adamantly says that she doesn’t want her story to be one of those “human courage” crap-stories that downplay the devastation that cancer breeds. Well, after reading her posts, I have to say that her story does resonate with one thing – human courage.
