I feel like I'm selfish by keeping this to myself for the past 8 months because I didn't want everyone to know my business, it was personal and I didn't know how to handle the news I received.
But I feel like I can use my situation to bring awareness. For the past 8 months I have been battling stage 4 cancer. Colon cancer that has spread from my colon to my gallbladder and my liver. The first doctor gave me only a few months to live. How does someone react to that news without any knowledge of cancer. Cancer does not run in my immediate family.
I have had several surgeries from 5 hours to 10 hours surgery to remove most of the cancer they were able to remove. I've been life support and even died on the table for a few minutes but I'm still here. I didn't know how to take what I been going through it's been devastating and hard to be in my situation. I have been positive because I pray and belive in God. I feel that I was chosen for this and I rather go through this than my family. I feel like I was chosen for this to bring awareness to the community.
I've only told a few people and didn't know what reaction I would get. I have made many people cry, I didn't know I have made an impact people's lives for them to cry for me. I thank God everyday.
I want to be able to give support to others through this similar journey I'm continuing to battle, to provide education and spread awareness. I want to give people a voice when they feel they don't have one. I am a fighter and continue to fight to find beauty in every difficult situation.
Always be kind to someone because you never know what someone is going through.
Like I always say blessings given are Blessings returned because God doesn't put us in a difricult position we can not over come.
I don't ask for sympathy, I just want to bring awareness. I would like to start planning a festival to bring cancer awareness soon. If anyone would like to participate, sponsor or donate. Please keep me in mind...
Love you all, God Bless.
Only thing I ask for, is if everyone can share my post, maybe this can reach someone that needs help or guidance and may have symptoms. Maybe my story can help them out or I can help out in some way...... ❤️
