Jacqueline Nalls Diagnosed 2009

Jacqueline’s Silver Lining
This journey has changed me forever. I am so grateful to be alive, I take less for granted. I’ve met wonderful people who continue to help me grow and who were there holding my hand through it all, and now I want to hold as many hands as I can. And, I quit smoking; quitting smoking had been the hardest thing to do, but now looking back after beating cancer, it was by far the easiest.

Jacqueline’s non-medical secret to survival
My mantra was “no fear – just faith”. I put my trust in God only and surrounded myself with prayer from family and friends and believed I would beat cancer, and I have.
