a FAIRTALE wedding ~ Sara & Cody

Mr. & Mrs. Cody Hulsizer

One of the many benefits I received from my time working as a caregiver for Comfort Keepers was becoming friends with the family of my beloved client! I had been with my sweet client {CJH} for over 4 years and during that time had built such a special and wonderful relationship with many of her family. One of those family members was her great granddaughter, Sara. She is such a sweet, kind and talented young woman and I always enjoyed spending time with her. Sara is a very courageous person and battled cancer several years ago long before I knew her. She witnessed many friends leave this earth due to cancer yet she never gave up and continues helping young people now as they face the fierce battle of cancer. She is an inspiration to those around her!!!

This is Sara during her chemo ~ look at that light that was still in her beautiful eyes!

I truly admire this amazing individual and am so blessed to call her 

FRIEND!!!
