Michelle’s Place was created as the last wish of Michelle Watson. Michelle succumbed to metastatic breast cancer at the young age of 26. When facing the difficulties of cancer care, Michelle was disappointed by the lack of local services available to her.
During her struggle, Michelle wanted a place where she could get some emotional support. A listening ear or a chance to speak to survivors, she wanted a place others could learn to cope with the illness. Michelle’s Place has assisted people and their families in coordinating treatment options.
“If there is any message I could pass on it would be to take today’s opportunities and live your dreams. I know sometimes it’s hard not to be stressed out by life and bogged with minor problems. Try to remember what matters most to your heart and be thankful for what you do have.” -Michelle Watson
