I am a Fighter
A couple of days after New Year of 2016 I received a call from my Doctor asking me to come in for an appointment immediately . I've been making visits to my ob gynecology as me and my then husband were trying to have a baby. One day , had so much cramping and spotting to which they first mis diagnosed me to having UTI. I took antibiotics and all that jazz but still had major abdominal pain. My ob gyne then set me for biopsy and that request for me to come to her clinic... she drop the bomb. I didn't know what to say... was in shock and of course in denial. I mean I'm freaking 31 . At this point I was lost on what to do , .. theyve given me quite a few options , freeze egg, wait another year and try to have a baby or surgery. It was assume it was grade 1 . In my mind, all I can think of is survivaL and be with family. I flew to Ph and there they ran more test and seen that I had 2 cas. Endometrial and Ovary. So they opened me up , had total abdominal hysterectomy staged me to 3 . Did chemotherapy and radiation afterwards. I did chemo every once a week . I forgot how many weeks (chemobrain) but I survived it , I'm so thankful I didn't feel nauseated or anything crazy. Just tired really. At this point , I was consumed with my relationship with my ex husband. It has gotten worst since we were both different sides of the world during my therapies. Didn't really think much about cancer . Really. It was sad that the one person that I wanted so much support from couldn't give me. Lucky I had family esp mom and friends supporting me all throughout. I did try to take anti depressants and sleeping pills. It was horrible for me . Cancer and deciding for divorce plus the fact I can't have a baby anymore.... seriously.. wtf . But moving on... to this day.. I am grateful. I am still under observation and divorced . I am still breathing and having the best time of my life. There are so many things to be grateful for and up until now when I think about it .. I cry but man ... I can't believe I survived that. With that being said... I can and will survive and so can you .
