Speaker: Michelle Strachan, Everman ISD
Michelle Strachan: And for me, this weekend has been a lot. This year, in June, I went for a mammogram and it came back abnormal and had to go through many different things. And when you get the diagnosis with "the C" with the breast cancer, even if it's the lowest level, it still rocks your world. And so after everything, I've had two surgeries, I will start radiation next month. So being nominated and being here this weekend is exactly what I needed. Just being able to engage in the the sessions were amazing. And just walking the campus, this is why I'm on the trail over here. It is just— it's incredible. Just being out here with nature. It's powerful. I can finally tell— I feel like I've just kind of let go and I'm just relaxing and it is an amazing, amazing thing. So thank you so much, Mr. Clark for nominating me. I'm so thankful that you thought of me. Thanks.
