BY KONSTANTIN VENGEROWSKY KONSTANTIN@THEITEM.COM MANNING - Kerrie Cribb is fighting cancer just like she has battled every other obstacle in her life. A standout athlete at Manning High School and Coker College, Cribb, 25, was diagnosed with a rare form of cervical cancer in May 2015. The condition, called small-cell neuro-endocrine cancer, represents a total of 1 percent of all cervical cancers. In January, Cribb discovered the cancer had spread to her liver and both lungs. "You can't put the feeling of finding out you have cancer into words," she said. "It's shocking. But finding out that it had spread to other organs was devastating." Cribb was working as an emergency room nurse at Palmetto Health Tuomey when she learned about her diagnosis. Despite her diagnosis, Cribb has kept a positive attitude throughout her battle. She is currently going through chemotherapy, consisting of a combination of three different drugs, every 21 days. "My faith, and the support of family, friends and individuals who I haven't even met, the combination of these is helping me get through this," she said. Kay Young, who was Cribb's tennis and assistant basketball coach at Manning High School, described her as caring, kind and energetic. "Kerrie is God-sent," Young said. "She has always cared about what is best for her team, rather than herself." Young said she saw Cribb's character come out multiple times while she was a student at the school. "Her last tennis match of her senior year, she was really sick that day, but came to school because she wanted to make sure she played to help the team in the playoffs," Young said. "She's a fighter." Cribb's best friend, Brittany Owens, said Cribb is doing an amazing job in her fight. "I don't know anyone else who has as positive outlook on life as much as Kerrie does," Owens said. "Her faith can move mountains." Owens has been Cribb's best friend since college. When Cribb was diagnosed last May, she started a fundraising campaign in which bracelets were made with the words, "KerrieStrong." "You really don't know how strong someone is until you have to take care of someone else who is at their weakest," Owens said. Cribb was there to help others when they were suffering, before being diagnosed. Her brother, Kevin Cribb, was involved in a serious motorcycle wreck in January 2015, which left him with a severe brain injury. Cribb was helping to take care of her brother while working as an emergency room nurse when she was diagnosed. "I started having lower back pains and unusual bleeding," she said. "I kind of pushed that aside as Kevin needed our support at the time." Claire Geddings, an emergency room nurse at Palmetto Health Tuomey, said Cribb genuinely cares about everyone she meets. "Being an emergency room nurse is an extremely demanding, fast-paced job, but Kerrie has always kept her cool," Geddings said. "She's a team player who's one of the kindest people I've ever met." When she was diagnosed in May, Cribb found out she had a tumor that was six centimeters. She underwent chemotherapy, but the treatments shrunk the tumor by less than one centimeter, she said. Cribb then went through 28 external radiation treatments and three internal radiation treatments, which made the tumor shrink, she said. She was set up for a hysterectomy in early 2016, a surgery to remove a woman's uterus, but that procedure was cancelled when she found out the cancer had spread. Cribb has found a doctor in Texas who specializes in the rare form of cervical cancer she is suffering from. She is planning on going to visit that doctor after she receives her results in March. Kara Casselman Ramirez, Cribb's friend since kindergarten, set up a GoFundMe page which raised more than $36,000 in about a month. "Kerrie's truly one of the strongest people I know," Ramirez said. "She makes you appreciate how precious life is. She's truly an inspiration to a whole community." Cribb's Go Fund Me page is https://www.gofundme.com/kerriestrong2. how can you help?
