When a community comes together...

Betty has been a teacher for a long time.  She has been dedicated to her work and to the students in her school... She's at a point in her career where she is teaching kids of kids she taught... pretty amazing... 

I haven't posted much here lately about Betty and breast cancer... Technically she is cancer free.  The lumpectomy was 'successful' in removing the cancer.  Because of the kind of cancer she had, the doctor felt that doing chemotherapy reduced the chance of recurrence enough to warrant going through the treatments.  Her treatments began about a month ago.  And in all will last 24 weeks.  Her second treatment was Monday which means she missed school Monday through Wednesday, missing the final few days of classes for her students.  The school got together, to do something to honor her.  This is the result:  


All of the students in the school are in the picture.  And... it is taken from the windows in Betty's classroom.   Beautiful.  The way people come together to show support for someone they love... is beautiful.  
Betty is amazing.  The chemo is not as fun as going to the spa, and she is facing it head on... showing a lot of courage.  Betty, You are AMAZING!  XOXOXO
