The World Shifted

<p>"In March 2010 during a routine exam Mary Northcutt was diagnosed with cancer. With one word our lives were changed forever. For us the World truly had Shifted. It's Stage 4 they said. It's incurable they said. You've got maybe a year.</p><p>As it turned out Mary had more than six years and I was with her every step of the way.</p><p>This is our story. It is a story of love courage faith and hope. Mary lived her life to the fullest extent and never gave up hope even when hope was all that was left her. She taught those around her how to live to love to never compromise with life. She taught us the meaning of friendship and the power of faith. Mary once said she thanked God for giving her cancer because it taught her to value life. We learned together that when your days are numbered you must make every day count.</p><p>Mary left the world a better place for her having been in it. It is in part because of her spirit that I am donating $1 for every copy sold to cancer research."</p><p> </p>
