You start to appreciate the little things and the time and stop worrying about the smaller things." - Michelle Velez Michelle Velez is a news anchor in Las Vegas, a mother of two, a wife and most recently became a cancer warrior. In the fall, Michelle was diagnosed with cancer, specifically stage 4 Gestational Trophoblastic Neoplasia. This type of cancer came about because of a molar pregnancy. Within days, Michelle went from the excitement of expecting her third child to learning a baby hadn't formed, to believing she was miscarrying and then to hear she had cancer.
