Her words: "I
clung on to hope throughout my whole journey with mesothelioma.
When you have hope, it makes the battle easier. I want people to
be inspired by me, I want to make them fight; give them something
to hold on to when all else fails. That is why I do it. If I
inspire one person, I've done my job.
I'm
using my personal story to help raise awareness of this little
known cancer, and to provide a sense of hope for others facing
life’s difficult challenges."

For any of us who are struggling with mesothelioma, or any other health issue, I think we can take some inspiration from Heather's words at the end of the video: "Don't give up. Don't take a death sentence as a diagnosis. There is hope."
What an amazing outlook on life. Thanks for sharing your story with us, Heather!
