October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month

For as long as Breast Cancer Awareness Month existed, I’ve always said a prayer for the survivors and for the ones that passed as well as their family and friends. Even though I had empathy for them, I could never imagine how it felt to be in any one of their shoes until now…
Two years ago, my aunt was diagnosed with breast cancer. My initial thought was, “Damn this cancer – LET’S FIGHT IT!!!!”
For the next few months, she needed to go through a series of tests prior to the mastectomy. A few months felt like an eternity! During that time, we were so caught up on an emotional rollercoaster – the unknown was nerve-wracking! My family and I made it our sole priority to keep fear and doubt from entering our minds, while keeping my aunt’s spirits high with love and trust!
My aunt and I had immediately discussed and agreed to her receiving Reiki treatments until the operation. She received three Reiki treatments per week for almost 3 months. As time went on, I noticed how her treatments were going through phases of Enlightenment, Acceptance, Understanding and Healing. She began noticing it too.Just before her operation, my aunt had an overwhelming feeling of contentment in her mind and spirit that everything was going to be alright…and she was right. As of October 2010, she has been cancer-free for a little over 1 ½ years and counting!
