•When I reflect on the past 9.5 years battle with late stage ovarian cancer, I can honestly say the -best gift- I can personally receive is when I can go for ANY period of time without thinking about my cancer diagnosis, oncology treatments, side affects, scans and the dreaded time waiting for results.
•My experience so far, has been filled with grief, anxiety, fear, sadness, physical/emotional pain, exhaustion, relief, and basically every human emotion one can imagine.
•Imagine, balancing while walking on a tightrope and not knowing which side you may fall… life or death.
•I’ve braved through countless harsh oncology treatments -so many I’ve lost count. While I do appreciate these oncology treatments have keep me alive, I still have more to face.
•I have learned to make it a priority to make time for joy and experiences that make me happy - with people who present with reciprocal love.
•Be silly, laugh, dance, sing, drink a b**r in Germany, Austria and Czech Republic - no holding back anymore!
•Appreciate the people in your life that bring you joy and provide that - “special gift”.
•Remind yourself that you are still the same person you were before your diagnosis - even though the physical changes.
🔑 Be grateful for good health- it truly is the ultimate blessing.
•Watch for upcoming news and events.
💝Let’s support others going through a cancer diagnosis and get RID of cancer!
