Mayra "Princess Jasmine" Sanchez

A daughter, sister, and aunt is what Mayra left this earth being, at 23 years old she lost her battle against stage 4 cancer. Although she always seemed to be healthy and at an appropriate weight out of high school kidney stones were detected due to insufficient water intake, we were told no surgery would be needed and in a few months of having pain in her side this went away. September of 2014 the pain started all over again followed by visits to the doctors sending her on pain prescription. Later on more serious tests were needed and that was when the family got concerned. The day she found out it was cancer she cried so much she herself was in disbelief, it took us all by surprise that in a few months stage 4 colon cancer was so advanced that surgery was not an option. Even through it all Mayra always held her head high went through with chemo but then in February fell into intensive care after having suffered a seizure, her body went through a lot and we were told chemo would only hurt her more and nothing could be done. As a Christian family we would call out on God and told it to let it be his will so our faith never died we stayed strong, the mother Julia was a nurse for her with the help of her oldest sister Sandra who was there with every nurse visit keeping medication controlled, although the Lord didn't want her suffering and took her on 4/6/15 and was pronounced dead at 9pm. She will be missed by many people she left us all with something to remember her by and always prepared us for what was going to happen, We love you Princess Jasmine, and will hold you close to our hearts, Always!
