World Cancer Day
On the same day that the world was spreading awareness about cancer, Stause received heartbreaking news. On Instagram, she posted that on the same day, she learned her mom only has one to two months to live. Making the situation even worse is that her mom is dying from the same type of lung cancer that took her father. He passed on Easter.
“I can’t make sense of what life is teaching me yet, but my heart is with every person fighting this horrible disease and every person that it robbed a loved one from.”
