November 9, 2017 I went into the OR for my Colorectal Cancer surgery. Little did we know my surgery would take 12 hours instead of the 6-8 the surgeon said it would. During surgery an artery was cut and I required 5 transfusions during surgery. I was placed in a medical coma for 7 days to weak to breathe on my own. I received another 4 transfusions, rehab, 2 Wound Vacs, IV antibiotics Vancomycin (top dog of antibiotics), 2 months in the hospital, 5 months dealing with wound vac changes 3 times a week, Wound Clinic for 7-8 months, chemo for 8 months and one full year of healing. Cancer is a mean mf bitch! Cancer doesn't care who it hurts. How it hurts. The lives it takes. Messes it makes. The hearts it breaks. Things Cancer cannot take: My Hope, strength, courage, passion, love for life, family, friends, memories, the present (what I have right now cancer cannot touch). Live each day to the fullest! Live, Laugh & most of all LOVE! #cancersucks #cancerfighter #cancerwarrior #cancersurvivor #stage2colorectalcancer #softtissuesarcoma #stomalife #faplife #eveninthedarknessthereislight #withGodallthingsarepossible #fightthegoodfight #cancerpickedthewrongbitchtomesswith #ITP #RF #noonefightsalone #nocolonstillrolling #ostomylifenotfortheweak #ostomateforlife #fuckcancer🖕 #chemoforlife #byebyeremission #neversurrender #nevergiveup #keepsmiling #keepfighting #staystrong #staypositive #barbiebuttprincess #thistoshallpass (at Princesses Throne In the Land of Smiles Freeze Island) https://www.instagram.com/p/B4qSCJ7nuIG/?igshid=3ahbxwa5ot15

3:10am and Cancer pain & neuropathy pain in my feet & hands have me up at this early am. I'm so freaking tired. All I want to do is sleep like most people at 3am. I take meds for both painful pains. Though nothing ever really calms the abusive pain enough to let me rest & sleep. #thistoshallpass and hopefully soon! #cancerpickedthewrongbitchtomesswith. #cancerfighter #cancerwarrior #cancersurvivor #stage2colorectalcancer #softtissuesarcoma #faplife #stomalife #RF #ITP #Lupus #renalfailure #chemoforlife #baldisbeautiful #barbiebuttprincess !cancersucks #chronicallyill #chronicallytired #chronicallybaldbadass #keepfighting #keepsmiling #notgivingup #neversurrender (at Princesses Throne In the Land of Smiles Freeze Island) https://www.instagram.com/p/B4b7-zCnhOW/?igshid=oq9gvfyjnhek

Being #chronicallyill is a #chronicpaininthebarbiebutt There are days I don't want to move an inch because the pain is to much. Not all illnesses are visible! Most days are golden. Then there are those from the HELL that feel as if they will never end. #stage2colorectalcancer #softtissuesarcoma #RF #ITP #Lupus #Stage3RenalFailure #nocolonstillrolling #noonefightsalone #chemoforlife #ctscan #MRI #scanxiety #cancersucks #cancerpickedthewrongbitchtomesswith #eveninthedarknessthereislight #withGodallthingsarepossible #fightthegoodfight #nevergiveup #neversurrender #keepsmiling #keepfighting #faplife #stomalife (at Princesses Throne In the Land of Smiles Freeze Island) https://www.instagram.com/p/B4Rc5ETnTK2/?igshid=p51vy497ayvy

HELLS bells I'm in my local ER for extreme pain 10+. I had an incredible day going to the Renaissance Festival. About noon Saturday I began to experience increased pain. When I finally got home I laid down hoping that would ease my pain. I have chronic pain due to #RF #softtissuesarcoma. #stage2colorectalcancer and other issues. This is just a royal pain in the barbie butt! #barbiebuttprincess #ostomatewarrior. #cancerfighter #cancerwarrior #cancersurvivor #thistoshallpass #eveninthedarknessthereislight #withGodallthingsarepossible #su2c #cancersucks #cancerpickedthewrongbitchtomesswith #noonefightsalone #nevergiveup #neversurrender #fightthegoodfight #nocolonstillrolling (at CMC-Northeast Emergency Department) https://www.instagram.com/p/B3Q136NnmLx/?igshid=gphsuekuz5jr

Monday & Tuesday were great days for me with low pain 6/7. Wednesday afternoon pain exploded upwards of 8/9. Today I'm stuck between my bed & lazyboy chair not wanting to move fearing I will anger the pain monster. #canceryousuck #chemosucks #chronicpainsucks #chronicallyill #chronicallytired #chronicallybadasscancerfighter #cancerpickedthewrongbitchtomesswith #noonefightsalone #nocolonstillrolling #stomalife #faplife #ostomylifenotfortheweak #ostomateforlife #hollisterostomybags #stage2colorectalcancer #byebyeremission #nevergiveup #n #keepfighting #keepsmiling #endallcancers. #scanxiety #scanxietyisreal #MRI (at South Historic Concord, Township 12 Concord) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1effpOHDDk/?igshid=1ajf1ngal3vm3

I have hope. I hope for a longer tomorrow. I hope to see many more years to come. God only gives us what He knows we can handle. There are times I think this is going to break me. I'm going to crack & no amount of hope, love or caring will be able to piece me back together. #withGodallthingsarepossible and I truly believe this. Sometimes I just wonder. I thought the worse was behind me. That I left #stage2colorectalcancer in the dust on Nov 9, 2017 after a 12 hour surgery that should have only been 5 hours long. One of my arteries was cut in the first 10 minutes of surgery requiring 5 transfusions during surgery & then being placed in a medical induced coma for a week & 4 more transfusions. Then 2 months in hospital, 8 months of chemo & a years recovery. I was in remission. Tuesday I found out I'm no longer in remission. #byebyeremission My colorectal cancer METS to my adrenal gland. That wouldn't be so bad if I had both my adrenal glands. At 18 my right kidney & adrenal were removed due to being nonfunctional & poisoning my body. Now I'm heading for major tests. The 29th I see Dr. Chicawalla my GI doc for my Endoscopy. Thank goodness for knockout drops. I really don't want to hear what they have to say during my scope. Then on the 30th I have my MRI. Yea! I hate small spaces. I will be taking my eyemask. After my GI, oncologist & surgical oncologist have viewed my scans & had their pow wow I will be seeing them. I'm hoping for the best outcome & prepared for the worse case senario. #lifeistoughbutsoami👊💪😏 #stage2colorectalcancer #softtissuesarcoma #stomalife #faplife #byebyeremission #chronicallybadasscancerfighter #cancerpickedthewrongbitchtomesswith #fightthegoodfight #eachdayisablessing #eveninthedarknessthereislight #nevergiveup #neversurrender #noonefightsalone #nocolonstillrolling #endallcancers #togetherwecandothis #keepsmiling #keepfighting #youcandoit #Nccancerfighter #stillkickingcancersbuttsmiling #ostomylifenotfortheweak #ostomateforlife #ostomysisters #hollisterostomybags #ileostomy #ileoforlife #Endoscopy #MRI #scanxiety. #scanxietyisreal #chronicallytired #chronicpainsucks #chronicallyill #spoonielife #spooniesisterhood #barbiebuttprincess (at Shnaeda’s Bar & Grill) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1Vbuo0nDgz/?igshid=1xmhdsdl304x8

I finally received my new t-shirt today. It's been a pretty rough few days. My pain has been through the roof. This made my day! I'm no longer in remission as the cancer has spread to the only adrenal gland I have. My right kidney & adrenal were removed due to being nonfunctional & poisoning my body as a teenager.My Endoscopy is set for the 29th with Dr. Chicawalla. He knows all about #faplife. MRI is set for the 30th. I'm hoping for the best & prepared for the worst. After these 2 tests I will be seeing the Oncology Surgeon, Dr. Hill & my Oncologist Dr. Mitchell. I'm incredibly blessed to have these amazing doctors in my corner. #canceryouareabitch #canceryousuck #cancerpickedthewrongbitchtomesswith #stage2colorectalcancer #softtissuesarcoma #stomalife #faplife #ostomylifenotfortheweak #ostomateforlife #cancerfighter #cancersurvivor #cancerwarrior #fightthegoodfight #eachdayisablessing #withGodallthingsarepossible #eveninthedarknessthereislight #keepsmiling #keepfighting #nevergiveup #neversurrender #noonefightsalone #togetherwecandothis #endallcancers #pleasefindacureforcancer #wegotthis #cancerpatientsunite #💙💙💙💙💙💙 (at South Historic Concord, Township 12 Concord) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1STckDHdqQ/?igshid=cw9y22ab4f7i
