We remembered this one of a kind woman today and I was reminded to not be sad, but to celebrate everything she brought to this world and embrace every day that we are blessed to enjoy on this earth.
I met Tony & Lindsay Giannobile at a time in my life that I needed inspiration. I was only a few months post treatment myself, I had just lost my dad and my mom had recently been diagnosed with metastatic Stage IV HER2+ breast cancer. They shared their story with me and I was so touched by there positive approach to life. Lindsay was Stage IV and metastatic, which meant there was no cure for her cancer. The furthest thing from their mind was to sit back and just wait! They were fighting every day, looking for new options. Advocating and educating others. They wanted nothing more than to have a family and had recently connected with a surrogate. They did not know exactly what the future would hold, but they were living in the moment and taking it one day at a time. There love for each other was inspiring.
I was lucky to have the opportunity to meet this very special woman and her honorable husband. This chance meeting is such a good reminder that there are so many moments in life that will change you forever. I took the chance to attend an event by myself and was lucky that Lindsay & Tony sat at my table. I am so grateful I took the chance and met this amazing couple.
I learned so much from Lindsay and she inspired me to never take any moment for granted! My life is forever enriched for knowing her and will be forever changed. Whose life will you impact today?
