Toni is a 32 years old married and is the mother of 2 wonderful boys.
At the age of 30 Toni was diagnosed with stage IV metastatic breast cancer that has already metastasized to her bones. She immediately was admitted to Winter Park Hospital in September 2006 to undergo a partial mastectomy of her left Breast and a port was placed in her chest to receive chemotherapy.
After 2 weeks in the hospital her cancer was typed as hormone receptive and a treatment plan was developed. the focus of quality of life. The cancer had caused so much pain in her lower back and hips at times it was unbearable to walk. Her team of doctors gave her the devastating news that this type of cancer was too advanced to cure, and her life expectancy was 2 years.
Right after discharge Toni started hormone therapy along with radiation which caused burns and a dramatic weight loss of over 100 pounds. Toni has also gone thru many rounds of chemotherapy which caused hair loss and radioactive isotope therapy which caused the adverse reactions of low blood counts.
Through all the ups and downs Toni has shown us a tremendous amount strength and at times helped her friends and family cope with the illness. Toni has so much love and happiness to share with everyone at times it is hard to tell that she is the one that is ill. No matter if it is a good or bad day for her she seems to always find the good in things. As she works through the final stages of life she reminds us all that no matter how bad things are someone always has it worst.
