[This Just In]

Terminally ill cancer patient, Kara Tibetts, wrote an open letter to Brittany recently. The letter is a poignant testimony to the beauty, love, and courage of living-and dying-through cancer.

My prayer is that this young woman will come to recognize the sanctity of life regardless of her previous misconceptions. Ultimately, may she come to know the only one who can truly save her, Jesus Christ.

In a world filled with self-obsessed, materialistic people who value life by way of its “usefulness”, this story of Kara and the hope she provides for others is nothing short of true sacrificial love and faith.

Here’s an article about Kara Tibbett:

Here is an excellent quote for the article you linked in your post:

Suffering is not the absence of goodness, it is not the absence of beauty, but perhaps it can be the place where true beauty can be known.”

Thank you for sharing the link.

I’m unaware of anyone who has ever survived a megaglioma like this woman has

But she’s not dying or living to suit freeperdom

So I hope she hangs on just a little longer to give folks here something to be themselves over
