A Dedication to Courage 41515 E, . . is -mf.: sg, :we- :-.g.,s1.- Lil, ,- 4 fw- Q '. .. ' .- fn t .N few t. - . 4..:.gv--tiff . gy.: -,ELF-:?:.:::1f1se 11.-w V Tracy Houting Tracy found out that she had cancer in August 1987. During surgery, a large, inoperable tumor was found, and Tracy had to undergo four intensive cycles of chemotherapy for three months. She courageously endured the painful and un- comfortable side effects as she continued to be an excellent student, doing most of her school work independently. Tracy had her second major surgery in Chicago on Christmas Eve. Doctors removed the malignant tumor and one of her kidneys. In January, Tracy was prepared for complete bone marrow transplant, a highly risky and painful medical procedure. However, the bone marrow transplant had to be postponed because doctors discovered complications which required further chemotherapy. Tracy returned to Holland in time for her induction into the National Honor Society on January 27. Coping with numerous hospital stays, medical examinations and tests, changing diagnosis and setbacks in her light against cancer, Tracy has continued to look forward to the future with optimism and a strong belief that God will sec her through these trying times. She serves as an example and inspiration for all of us . . . courageous, honorable, proud, and worthy. West Ottawa High School honors Tracy Houting as our Profile in Courage. 2
