Numbing grief stole that birthday and a couple more to follow and, on the morning of her 48th birthday, she received the call shed dreaded ever since losing her mom so many years agoshe was diagnosed with stage-3 ovarian cancer. The doctors didnt hold out a lot of hope, but Liv survived and maintained her faith. Months of surgeries and chemotherapy and radiation treatments followed.
But now, as her 50th birthday creeps up the icy Ohio path toward her, her hair has grown back, her energy level is up, and she is officially cancer free. It makes her nervous.
