"If you or someone you love is effected by cancer, please feel free to reach out for it is an emotional rollercoaster unlike anything else.
"Love to you all please make sure to do the things that you love. Life is short. It is chaos. And you never know when it’s going to be you.
"Be well and go to the doctor. F**k cancer.”
