I can't go to Advocacy Day this year because something not great happened, but Debbie's Dream Foundation: Curing Stomach Cancer sent me a hoodie and a card. I'm so touched 🥲 I will go next year.

I'm raising money for Debbie's Dream Foundation: Curing Stomach Cancer! If you're interested in supporting stomach cancer research, please click this secure link! Thank you for your support in my life after stomach cancer!!

My stomach was removed by Dr. Davis at NIH on August 31st 2020, as part of a cancer research study. I'm healthy and happy now. Please help me raise funds to support 2024 DDF Advocacy Day!

Several months ago on the left and today on the right. Honestly I'm irritated because I've been lifting like crazy and was hoping to see more development overall. But all I can do is keep going.

Unfortunately tooth decay happens after you lose your stomach. Today I had a root canal to save a tooth that had a massive cavity. My face is still numb 3 hours later!

Take good care of your teeth and don't forget your calcium citrate.

My surgery date has been SET! I'll announce that in my next video

We had fun!

Our NIH dietician wanted us to test out different kinds of protein drinks before surgery so we’ll already know what we like!

My surgery was temporarily postponed until my breast biopsy results are back, but in the meantime I can tell you what my experience with NIH has been like so far!

I check into NIH on July 1 and my surgery will be July 6.

I just got off the phone with Dr. Davis. My biopsies have returned! I have signet cell carcinoma. It's bittersweet but I'm glad because now I know having my stomach removed is absolutely the right thing, no question about it!

Even if you've asked it before - ask it again! I'm going to work on my Q&A video and I need a bit of ammo! Bring it!

In regards to my health situation, of course 😁
