Wednesday, June 29th, 2016 — Yolanda Mendoza lives every day like it’s her last. The mother of three is very happy and healthy now - a stark change from three years ago, when she was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma. "What was going through your head?" CBS News correspondent Mireya Villarreal asked. "That I ­­was going to die," Mendoza recalled. "I had only like a few days." During her five-month battle with the disease, her children were only allowed to visit once a week. There were moments when she didn’t think she’d make it, but Mendoza said her kids helped her through them, and the most difficult part was "not being there for them."
