Carly Thorne is currently a senior at Slippery Rock University studying Public Relations, and she will be graduating in December 2015. Throughout her time in college, two colleges I might add, she has overcome multiple situations that have shaped her into who she is today. Before beginning college at Kent State, her cousin was in a fatal accident. This was her first situation with such a tragedy. A week after the death of her cousin, she found out that her mother had been diagnosed with stage 4 metastatic breast cancer. She continued to study at Kent State for one year, and then transferred to Slippery Rock University and got a job at Old Main as the student worker for the Assistant to the President. During this time, her mother became even more ill, with the cancer making its way through her body, and ultimately into her brain; she passed away on August 15, 2014.
Carly has had to overcome some things that one person couldn't even image about. For this project, I will get to know Carly and allow her to tell her story about her life, and how she overcame all of these obstacles. She will be an inspiration to others in similar situations, and continue to remind people that no one fights alone.
