Category: Cancer Journey

Follow me on my cancer journey, from the beginning all the way to the newest updates. It’s been a wild ride so far. Join me and my family as we navigate through fear, hopes, the medical system and simply ever day living. God has already been gracious to us and continues to bless us. You will find me often referring back and thanking Him for simply being alive still.

Cancer is never a word you want to hear from your doctors. Especially when you are in your mid 20’s. However knowing what I know now, I also understand that I was given a blessing in disguise. Would I have chosen this path for me and my family? No. Definitely not, but I wouldn’t be the person I am today without the diagnosis.

I’m sure not all cancer patients are as fortunate as me. Many don’t even make it to the one year mark. I understand that I am blessed in this unfortunate turn of events since my cancer is slow growing. Know that if you are also fighting cancer, I am praying for you.

One thing that often came up during these conversation was that maybe it isn’t very clear to people I interact with, my readers and sometimes family member as well, what it really means to have an ‘incurable cancer’. If you were one […]

Here for another round

On to the medical update… Besides dealing with the recurrent depression, my biggest struggle I would have to say are related with my throat. One is a cough that just won’t go away and the other is swallowing issues. I had mentioned both to some doctors in the past, but it kind of often got […]

Celebrating My Cancerversary

What do I even say about this day? Today is mixed with almost every emotion known to man. The most overwhelming ones however, are gratitude and joy. Joy to still be alive, not just alive but thriving. Gratitude for positive results in the last month, the ability to live life to the fullest. This is […]

Für meine Deutschen Freunde

Hallo meine Lieben, Erst mal möchte ich mich bei euch allen für eure Liebe, Gebete und Segenswünsche bedanken, die ihr mir in den letzen 22 Monaten hab zu kommen lassen. Heute möchte […]

A long overdue Update

This is the longest time I have gone without updating my blog since its inception. So many reasons for that, but mostly I think is that I am doing pretty well and there haven’t been any super “Breaking News” moments in a while. Its more like living life, making sense of life. Maybe lets start […]
