The Woods Behind My House Childhood is a time of both restriction and freedom. Whether crossing the street or going to the park, children must always be accompanied by someone older. School is usually the first time in a child's life where the child is able to experience a measure of freedom and independence. Though at first the feeling may be overwhelming, the child eventually enjoys the freedom that comes from being on their own. The woods behind my log-sided house on 210th Street was a…

through my head and I can’t find an answer to them. The only conclusion I keep coming to is cancer controls my destiny unless I defeat it and I’m determined to do so. I will watch my kid and grandkids grow up. I will be at their soccer games and dance recitals. I have so many things to look forward to in life and accomplish, cancer is not going to ruin them. At this moment I realized I hold my future in my hands not cancer and I will do everything in my power to make sure it doesn’t take over…
