Karen Palmer holds one of her daughters in the picture below. Although Anisa, at her young age, does not understand why she cries when anyone else would hold her, she knew she wanted to share every moment in her mothers ' arms.
Karen Palmer died shortly after being diagnosed with metastatic stage IV breast cancer. It was a final lung failure that took her last breath. The term metastatic is defined as a secondary cancer or a cancer that has spread from one place to another. In this case, the malignant tumor had spread to the lungs. Karen Palmer was also adopted at a very young age and the records are hard to resurface about her birth parents complete background and health records. 
The health care system has improved in the Virgin Islands since the 80's but many health care facilities still suffer. Although more individuals know or have heard about breast cancer, still many individuals suffer from the lack of knowledge about preventative measures to reduce risks for breast cancer. Karen Palmer worked out and ate healthy but dealt with abuse from a previous marriage. She also had adopted parents that both died of lung cancer due to smoking.

I would like to thank I Will Survive for all that they have done. My mother Helen Holmes is a breast cancer survivor. Thanks to organizations like I Will Survive because they truly stand by what they say they will do.
Hello I Will Survive! I love you name, and your mission. I hope to be one of the recipients of your survivorship and financial assistance. It always warms my heart when I see people helping us going through this extremely taxing time. God bless.

As an 8 year breast cancer survivor myself, I applaud and support this movement!!
I support everything this organization represents and then some. I plan to become an advocate for what they do
Ms. Palmer and her awesome staff is compassionate, caring, loving and supportive of all cancer patients and survivors, and is willing to help anyone in need.
I too am a breast cancer survivor (March 2017, will be my one year ) cancerversary and I like many of my pink/blue/white sisters are still facing the fall-out from the overwhelming experience of cancer diagnosis, treatment and now life afterwards.
In addition, we are still struggling with co-pays, healthy eating, emotional support, job loss, as well as personal and family issues.
However, the “I Will Survive” family has been so gracious in helping all of us from financial assistance to one of our bigger concerns, supplementing our food budget for healthy eating.
This is an amazing organization, five star rating that is committed to the fight to help patients and survivors stay healthy and survive our personal journey’s.
Thank you, Ms. Palmer and staff for going above and beyond.
Regards,
Deborah Ann Jenkins

I recently relocated to Atlanta, and wanted to offer volunteer services, while seeking a new full time position. Having a background in healthcare, it was important to me to volunteer for an organization that is truly dedicated to being compassionate, supportive, and healing. I came across ‘I Will Survive, Inc’ during my search and immediately resonated with the healing endeavors and message of ‘I Will Survive’. In my own way, I was on a personal path of renewal and healing. When you walk into the space of I Will Survive, Inc, you immediately can feel the warm, healing energy, you know that you are welcomed in a true safe haven of compassion. Such a wonderful place with wonderful caring people. Miss Anisa Palmer, the Founder of I Will Survive, Inc. is a true beacon of compassion, strength, wisdom, warmth, and guidance. All of the staff of volunteers were also wonderfully warm and compassionate, each bringing a special sense of care and giving. I was inspired in meeting each Survivor, witnessing their vulnerability and beautiful strength. I have had wonderful, endearing moments sharing with them warm words and hugs, soft laughter, and bright smiles of compassion. I will always treasure my experience at I Will Survive, Inc, and support this organization for it’s wonderful, compassionate, healing, good works.
