Texas woman who underwent 15 months of aggressive chemotherapy told she never had cancer

39-year-old mother of two and a higher education worker from College Station, Texas, experienced aggressive chemotherapy after being diagnosed with angiosarcoma, a rare form of blood vessel cancer, early last year. Now she has found out that she never had cancer in the first place.

The diagnosis came after Lisa experienced stomach pain, and a scan revealed a mass in her body along with kidney stones. "When the doctor told me it was cancer, I went into shock. The diagnosis was horrible, and [they] told me it was terminal," she told Daily Mail.

Despite the grim prognosis, Lisa kept the severity of the diagnosis from her children, opting not to share that she had been given just over a year to live. She resolved to fight the disease and began leaving memories for her children, writing letters with messages for the future weddings she would miss and the grandchildren she feared she'd never meet.
