Cancer Can't Stop Me!

The Cancer Journey

Diagnosis

It all started with a trip to the doctor. I never expected to hear the word "cancer".

Treatment

I went through a lot - chemo, radiation, surgery - but I did it. I stayed strong.

Recovery

It wasn't easy, but I took it one day at a time. Every day I wake up knowing how precious life is.

Being Alive With Cancer

Gratitude

Every day I am thankful for my life, my family, and the opportunities I have to make a difference.

Hope

I never give up hope. Every new treatment and breakthrough brings me closer to a cure.

Purpose

I want to use my experience to help others going through cancer. Together we can fight this disease.

Challenges of Being a Young Adult with Cancer

Isolation

It's hard being the only young person in a room full of elderly cancer patients. I felt alone.

Identity

As a young adult, cancer can make you question who you are and what you want out of life.

Support

I needed support from family and friends who couldn't always understand what I was going through.

Importance of Understanding and Support

Non-Judgmental

It's important to listen and support without judgment. Everyone's cancer journey is different.

Empathy

Try to understand what your loved one is going through. Cancer is a life-altering experience.

Provide resources and practical help to someone with cancer - it can make all the difference.

I wanted to share my journey while actively going through it although its been hard af , its exactly what I needed I am so grateful for the community I have created for myself my new friends , new family , new sisters I mean honestly who the fuck would have thought Cancer would do this.  In 2024 I thought I would have went under reconstruction but NO I still have not ! most of ''24'' I was upset about that seeing my other breasties , get their surgeries made me feel so stuck.

Embracing the Power of Yes: A Journey of Change and Growth

The concept of New Year's resolutions often comes to mind.

One such pattern is my desire to read more. Every year, I make a promise to myself that I will dedicate more time to reading, and yet, I often find myself falling short of this goal. It's a recurring cycle that I can't seem to break. Perhaps it's my Virgo nature that contributes to this cycle. As a Virgo, I am known for my meticulous planning and attention to detail.
