Cancer Picked The Wrong Chick:
The Story Of The Sarcoma Warrior

This picture book is dedicated to all the “Cancer Warriors” who conquered cancer and all who are still fighting the good fight. For those who are still fighting, we pray that our journey was and is an inspiration and can be used as a platform for you to continue to push through. If there is nothing you can take from this book to encourage you, then please remember “GOD HAS THE LAST WORD” and this too shall pass. Stay strong and know that we love each and every one of you who has been touched by this horrible disease. From Kennedy M. Parker and Family, Our Pictures Tell Our Story.
