“Reason this person is a Gold Ribbon Hero: Since the day of her diagnosis  she has been strong and has made me, her mother, strong by watching how calm she has been through the whole process. When I told her her hair will start falling out but that I would buy her a wig, she said ok, have you ordered my wig yet? I thought to myself, ok, that went easier than I thought. She has been very strong. I am very proud of her.” – Denise V
