A Message Posted by NBC5’s Stephanie Gorin
I. Hate. Cancer.And I hate to learn that New York State Senator, Betty Little, is battling it now.
Little has represented Northern NY in the State Senate for 18 years.
She’s retiring in December.
Little had a cancerous lump removed from her breast. Just 3 weeks later she was back at work. Though she will need chemotherapy that she’ll take in the form of pills.
She’s telling her story hoping it will encourage women to get their yearly mammograms. That’s how doctors found her cancer.
She feels fortunate that she turned 80 last month, and hasn’t had an illness like this before.
When it comes to cancer, we should all put political views aside. Nobody deserves it.
I’m sending prayers and positive thoughts to Senator Little and her family, and hope you will, too.
