Erin joined Devon at the BC Cancer agency on Tuesday this week when she started her chemo-maintenance, which will last 2 years (chemo once every 3 months). With the anniversary of our father’s death coming up soon, it has been an emotional last week for our entire family – remembering dad and his fight against cancer and supporting Devon in a new initiative in her own fight against cancer.

Erin wrote the following on Facebook on Tuesday at Devon’s chemo appointment:
Early morning Chemo with Devon Brusse. when I walked in this AM I was overwhelmed with emotion. Lots of bad memories here from this year and all that she has been through. I have no idea how she’s does this?? She is one strong woman and this CANCER will not get the best of her.. Ever! Thanks for all the support!

Devon’s first day of chemo maintenance.

And an update from Devon after completing chemo:
Feeling pretty good after chemo today. Erin and I did some hard core shopping in Van and I now going to head out on a walk to get some air. Thanks Shannon Susko for the awesome apple carrot juice & I am looking forward to the pumpkin spice loaf. Thanks for the support and kind words, I couldn’t do it without everyone being in my corner.

Cancer sucks but it’s beatable! BOOM!
