On her deathbed, my mother assured me that there was nothing in life to fear. I was so scared that day as I knew this time she would not be leaving the hospital.
It's been six years since that day and I live by her last words. I have changed my life and have achieved things I never would've thought possible; I became an artist. I've met thousands of people fighting cancer and they've all impacted my life greatly. I design and give away hats for people fighting cancer, I love what I do.
The picture above is my friend Lauren, I met her through one of my hats. Lauren lost her battle with breast cancer last year. I never met Lauren in person, we were friends because of a simple hat.
