Anyway, a lot has happened since my last post. I also went for 17 sessions of radiation therapy to my neck, back and chest. As of today i can barely speak since the treatments were affecting my voice box. Treatments ended last Thursday by the way. But don't fret, i will be able to speak AND sing again (to all my fans please be patient my singing career will be back soon! LOL). Though i'm able to eat solid food again with minimal pain.
And oh yeah, my hair my hair my hair is finally growing back!!! As what i told a friend of mine, i feel like a pubescent kid with hair starting to grow in almost everywhere in my body. It feels really weird but i'm glad to see them back. My appetite is back so i am also gaining weight, i am 127lbs from a mere 107lbs since chemo #5. I am able to start enjoying my weekends like most people. I still want to go back to jogging and hopefully enroll in a gym coz right now i can only tolerate minimum to moderate exercises. Soon.
It was a journey of a lifetime. It changed everything in my life. I am a lot stronger than i was. I found out who my true friends are. I realized that people are naturally caring and that FAITH is one powerful thing!
To my family who i know literally went through the pain with me, i love you guys so much! To my friends, who cried and laughed with me throughout this whole experience, my hypothalamus leaps with you!, For all of you who expressed their love in any form, i thank you from the bottom of my heart! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! I wouldn't have been able to fight cancer alone. And most of all to the Higher Being watching me up there, thank you for the strength, the love, the hope... thank you very much! :)
To anybody reading this who are in the middle of a health crisis. Please NEVER give up the fight. Cancer is just a word!!! NOT your world. Cry if you have to. Be angry if you need to. Fight!!! You are not alone in this battle.
