My sister and I lost our mother, Denise Beattie, after her second courageous battle with cancer. She discovered a large lump in her neck in late 2023 and was quickly diagnosed with cancer in one of her tonsils. The doctors reccommended chemotherapy with radiaton and she started treatment February 2024. For the next 7 weeks Denise went to radiation 5 days a week, Monday through Friday and went to chemotherapy every tuesday. Because the cancer was in her neck, the doctors informed her that swallowing, drinking and eating would become difficult once treatment started and they recommemded that she have a feeding tube inserted into her stomach beforehand. The seven long and painful weeks for our mother came to end in April and the effects from her treatment were

planning a celebration of life for her and any donations towards the costs of the event would be appreciated.
