“God” is my strength & my savior for I look to him when my choices are overwhelming or the burdens are just to heavy to hold.
June 23rd 2022, I was diagnosed with stage III breast cancer. I reflected back on the day that I got that phone call with my results. I was so hurt & broken, it was like the weight of the world was on my back. At the same time it felt like an empty space.
It’s hard to explain the emptiness I was feeling inside. To be told that without treatment you won’t live long!!!! it’s like a ticking time bomb exploded in your head.
I wasn’t ready to face breast cancer. I didn’t feel like I was strong enough to take on treatments or if I was courageous to stand strong to fight what’s ahead of me.
I didn’t want to share this because I was afraid of those insensitive people & what negative comments will follow. I was surprised by all the overwhelming love & support I receive from friends, family & strangers since the day I found out that I was diagnosed with breast cancer.
This is my truth & I will not let fear come between my willingness to fight anymore. This is just the beginning. I have a lifetime of fighting cancer ahead of me. I am ready & with “God” by my side I will be a conqueror & survivor.
