A Wish is Granted

February 11, 2013 by sarterbery

A Savannah, GA teen was conferred a special degree by Savannah State University on Sunday, February 3, 2013. This local teen had always dreamed of graduating college and was able to do so with the help of family and friends.

At 14, Joy Epps has been battling cancer for three years. Soon she is expected to lose that fight but she hasn’t let that stop her. Joy has always wanted to be a marine biologist and by obtaining the degree, she was able to live out her dreams.

“Do what you can to fulfill your dream and if you can’t do yours try to help someone with theirs.” – Joy
