Rose was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2003.  She underwent  surgery, radiation and chemotherapy.  In June 2007, the cancer showed up in her brain in the form of a tumor that has affected her eye.  In December 2007, she went through a round of "targeted" brain radiation, zapping only the tumor, and responded well to treatment.  In January 2008, a PETScan showed 6 spots of cancer in her thoracic spine, armpit & hip bone.  She underwent aggressive chemotherapy in February 2008. In June of 2009, a MRI revealed more lesions on her pituitary, lung, adrenal gland and hip.  She is currently taking a series of "chemo pills".  Throughout her battle, Rose's faith and trust in God has remained steadfast and has been a continuous encouragement and faith builder to all who know and love her.

Rose has an incredible journal where she share's her story, as well as some beautiful insights on the Christian life. For more information, please visit the following link:
