Cancer Quote by Witney Carson

“Right at the same time I got my diagnosis I was also auditioning for 'Dancing With The Stars.' That was my dream since I was 7 years old. And then I had the chance to be on the show and I had this melanoma on my foot, so I didn't tell anyone - even the producers - for a long time.” quote by Witney Carson
