WHEREAS, Lupe Silva was named the March 2011 McAllen Cancer | ||
Fighter of the Month by the American Cancer Society; and | ||
WHEREAS, Diagnosed with Stage III ovarian cancer in June | ||
2009, Ms. Silva quickly underwent surgery and, following her | ||
recovery, began chemotherapy treatment; she has since undergone two | ||
more surgeries, the last one in December 2010, and is again | ||
completing a round of chemotherapy; and | ||
WHEREAS, CT scans currently reveal Ms. Silva to be | ||
tumor-free, though blood work shows the fight is not yet over, and | ||
she and her doctors remain vigilant; still, she proudly counts | ||
herself among the survivors; and | ||
WHEREAS, Through it all, Ms. Silva has drawn strength from | ||
the love and prayers of her family and friends, and her unfaltering | ||
courage has inspired all who know her; now, therefore, be it | ||
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 82nd Texas | ||
Legislature hereby congratulate Lupe Silva for being named the | ||
March 2011 McAllen Cancer Fighter of the Month and extend to her | ||
sincere best wishes for continued recovery; and, be it further | ||
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be | ||
prepared for Ms. Silva as an expression of high regard by the Texas | ||
House of Representatives. | ||
