Valarie Harper Diagnosed with Terminal Brain Cancer


Valarie Harper who survived lung cancer in 2009 now has been diagnosed with terminal brain cancer. Valarie Harper shares her views on her terminal brain cancer diagnoses with the world.  Valarie Harper who is the 73 year old veteran of the Mary Tyler Moore show which lead to the spinoff of her own show Rhoda.  Valarie shared she has been given the prognoses of three to six moth to live and as she states has decided to focus on “infinite possibilities and the hopefulness of miracles.  She has decided to do experimental chemo therapy and the concept don’t count me dead until after the funeral.  What I would say to Valarie who has so bravely decided to share this very private moment with the world it is thank you.  A cancer diagnoses for many means different thing, some when diagnosed tell no one they continue their lives in secret losing hair, weight while others look on and think what’s wrong with them.  Some decide that through the anger and pain to share and help others as Valarie has decided.  As she said  we are all terminal we just don’t know how or when.  I salute Valarie for living her life and being able to share her cancer days with others.
