September is Gynecologic Cancer Awareness Month and the one I’m currently fighting is commonly known as Womb Cancer but it is also often called Uterine or Endometrial Cancer. At the age of 24 I heard the C word and my entire world was ripped apart. I was also told that a hysterectomy was in my future and suddenly all those dreams I’ve had of having a family & being a mother were snatched away. However because of my young age we agreed to try Hormone Therapy aka Fertility Saving Treatment. Two IUD (coils) with hormones attached were placed into my womb and I was also put on a hormone drug that kills off the cancer cells. None of this is side effect free, you have menopausal side effects, my hair is falling out, swollen feet, pain etc and that’s only the physical side. The emotional toll and the stress is exhausting. Every 6 months I have to have a hysterscopy and a Dilation & Curettage to take biopsies and remove any nasty looking tissue. This is to see if the Hormone Therapy is working by keeping the cancer stable or to see if the cancer has grown or traveled anywhere else. Womb Cancer is supposedly rare in young people however on my journey through this I’ve discovered that it does occur and to a lot of young people. We need to know more about it and what to look for. My life has been turned upside down and been completely changed forever and I truly hope you never have to experience any of this. Please get involved and help raise awareness this month 🧡🎗🍑 #gynecologiccancerawarenessmonth #gynaecologicalcancerawarenessmonth #gynaecologicalcancer #gynecology #cancer #wombcancer #uterinecancer #endometrialcancer #gynaecancerawarenessmonth #oncology #notallcancerispink #awareness #gcam #mystory #talkpeach https://www.instagram.com/p/CiFLdB_oaJn/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Screw Sarcoma

I never thought at 22 years old I would have to say the most upsetting words anyone ever has to speak, I have cancer. I have this nasty growing disease inside of me trying to take control of my entire existence. It is in my leg and in my lungs. I'm still trying to wrap my head around the fact that I have a large tumor in my thigh that is cutting away at my time here on this planet. All I ever wanted was to go through life like any normal human being. Graduate, get the job, buy the house, have babies, and grow old with the people I love most. Now, I dont know if I will even be around to achieve any of those things. I'm sad, pissed, helpless, and hurting. I'm on a rollercoaster of emotions and the ride hasn't stopped. My cancer is a rare form of a rare cancer. Just my god damn luck. I don't go to church every sunday, but I prayed that it wouldn't be cancer. God didn't answer my prayers. My faith in something bigger than me, a higher power is slim. Just like my chances of ever being normal again. I want to wake up from this horrible dream, it's too difficult to be my reality. I feel so alone even with the support I have behind me. They aren't going through it the same way I have to. I'm trying to be strong, even though I just want avoid all of this. My poor mother is hiding her sadness, while my dad copes by researching ways to prevent it from coming back. Thats the thing though, it never truly goes away. Basically it hibernates until it decides to slowly grow again. I will constantly have to battle this for the rest of my life. It's a battle I will never truly win and that scares me. Maybe one day there will be a cure. Until then the battle is on ASPS.

Wombyn Know your risk factors for Uterine/Endometrial Cancer. Many experience few or no symptoms at all. If you have #hypertension #diabetes #obesity #estrogenreplacementtherapy #PCOS etc.... You have a higher risk. Even after menopause you should get regular care. #uterinecancer #endometrialcancer #fightlikeagirl #notallcancerispink #peachribbon https://www.instagram.com/p/BupJviJhUYk/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1hyigassopiu9

Give a hug, lend a ear... No other words needed. But please don’t tell a cancer patient about the people who have died from this disease. They need encouragement and only good energy! 👗 #tealsthedeal #TealQuotes #cervicalcancer #ovariancancer #uterinecancer #vaginalcancer #vulvarcancer #tealsisters #notallcancerispink #cuckfancer #cancersucks Source @tealsthedeal #thetealsociety https://www.instagram.com/p/BuBuiRBAJtB/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=17v71olx49o02

Another Day Another PET

Here we are again. 

7:43am.

In a waiting room.

Waiting for what sometimes feels better off as the unknown. 

This is Colton’s first PET scan since the radiation to the last remaining tumor in his groin area. It’ll be head to toe and we’ll find out results tomorrow.

His scan was originally scheduled for this Friday and we would learn the results at his next treatment next Wednesday, June 28th. But we got a call yesterday morning saying his doctor would be out of the country next week and she wanted to know the results before she left. 

Having the process sped up to today and tomorrow instead of a week away brought a shock to both of our systems. After picking up and moving to the “Big Apple” at the drop of a hat you’d think we’d be able to handle a little change like that. But, and I think I’ve mentioned this in previous posts, we have this routine we tend to go through. The week leading up to the scan and results, we tend to find ourselves sitting in more and more silence. Not finding too much to converse about. Getting in our own heads. And then when we do talk, it usually turns into one of us being petty about something stupid and it ends in harsh words exchanged. So, needless to say, we skipped a few steps. Luckily it was more of the sitting in silence and not talking than the fighting about stupid stuff part. 

As we go through the motions of what it means to be “battling cancer” (hate that term), it’s just a routine you get used to. Ok, schedule treatment every two weeks. Cool. It’s just something else in the calendar. But scans never become “just something else in the calendar”. It’s like a looming date where we feel like we could just go without. It’s to the point where we just would rather not know than know. It’s like living in ignorance if we didn’t know. Which sounds more blissful than going through it every 3 months.

I was talking to a friend yesterday and he was asking me what the outcomes the scan could be. So I was explaining the options we could possibly be facing.

1. Everything’s gone. 2. Everything’s the same. 3. There’s more there than before.

And we talked about what Colton and I were hoping for, since we know it won’t be #1 because we can still physically feel the tumor from the outside of his body, although it is shrinking. I externally processed what I now realize to be that hope has left my mental dictionary. I don’t really hope. I either know or don’t know. But at this point in the game, hoping seems like a waste of time. I get that it’s what we’re “supposed to do”. I get that it’s “Biblical”. But, where I am right now, I’m fine with not knowing anything until I know everything. 

Wow. That’s dark. Didn’t really realize it till I reread it. Sorry guys.

And I get it, people don’t know what to say. So they go to the clichés. “Have faith”. “Think positive”. “It’ll be alright”. And they mean the best things of them. They MEAN them. But to me. That’s a period. The end of the conversation. To me, that’s where you’re dismissing the last two and a half years of my life and there’s no where to go in the conversation from there. It’s saying to me that if I don’t have faith, if I’m not thinking positive, if i don’t feel like it’ll be alright, you don’t want to hear about it. Which, at this point, is fine. I realize not everyone is comfortable with the uncomfortable conversations that come along with our life. And sometimes, I don't have the energy to talk about it anyway, so I take those phrases and use them as a welcome to change the subject, because that’s what both of us want in the moment. 

This is definitely not to say that we don’t have the people in our lives invested. Like, in the dirt and mud with us. The lowest of lows and the celebrations. You’re there. In NYC and back home and all over. And there’s a lot of you. I see you. We see you. And we appreciate you. 

But anyway. There’s where we are right now. I’ll post another update tomorrow with the results of the scan from today. Sorry for such the depressing post. But I don’t use this as a place where I repost motivational quotes and stuff. This is my life and a way that helps me process some of the stuff we’re going through that I ignore in my subconscious sometimes daily. So you guys get to see it all here.

Random things that can only happen to Fritz #1110 : Finding out that not all cancer is pink. On November 10,2016 I was diagnosed with Endometrial Cancer. Without question, these last couple of months have been the hardest months of my life. I have questioned everything in my life because of it, and needless to say it has taken a huge physical, emotional, and, spiritual toll on me. But, I refuse to live in the negativity and let it take me over. Through all this time, I haven't ask God to heal me but rather to show me His purpose in all of this. Sometimes, God shows us who we really are through our struggles instead of through our success. He plans unexpected needs to arise at inconvenient times so we trust and depend on Him. To say that I can beat cancer is a lie. I am nothing without Him. Only He, the Maker of the heavens and the seas, can heal me and I wait and hope on that fact. Whether it happens tonight or never at all my faith in God Almighty is not moved but rather increasing. I have bad days, and good ones too but that is never a factor in the love I have for God. If you are hurting, in anyway mentality, physically, spirituality I urge you to trust in God. He loves and will make all this work in His time and plan. Wait upon Him, He is faithful to the end. It has taken me 31 years to start my actual life journey and I cannot wait to see what God has in store. I only pray that God will continue to use me as a vessel for the love He has for all people, including you reading this right now. I hope that you can share this Message of hope with someone you may know that needs it. Thank you to everyone for the support you have been giving me both with or without knowing the cause. Please continue to keep me in your prayers, my battle is not over, but I'm going to keep moving forward. 💗🙏🕆 #putitonthefritz #randomthings #randomthingslist #1110 #notallcancerispink #endometrialcancer #endometrialcancerawareness #thereishope #ingodwetrust #2017 (at The Americana at Brand)
