Sami's Fight

Sami was lost to cancer on 15 September 2008.

His battle with cancer was long and hard, starting in 1994 when he lost a leg, then in 2006 when he lost part of his lungs and finally 2007-2008 when he lost his life. For those of you who don't know he had Osteosarcoma, a kind of bone cancer that starts in teenagers/young adults mostly in the bones. More info: Osteosarcoma

Ofcourse there were also cycle after cycle of hard and difficult chemotherapy but he always came out smiling and being thankful to Allah no matter what. I will not go into a lot of details because I want this to be about him not stupid cancer! Yes I call it stupid cancer now, as do so many others: stupidcancer/im2youngforthis

Edit:
I said earlier that this blog could not be about cancer, but have realized that it has to be, as much as Sami's memories are precious and special I feel that its my obligation to inform all who come across this blog with as much info I can about cancer, its effects on lives, the fight and the numerous great causes out there making a difference.
