I had a bleeding issue when I went to the bathroom. They ran a bunch of tests, but gave me a clean bill of health. I persevered (somehow, I just knew something was wrong), and a barium test showed a tiny tumor. However, I didn’t realize it was stage four until I received a specialized scan at Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville. It shows exactly where the cancer is. Devastating diagnosis, but also so good to know where you stand, to be certain instead of second-guessing, and to change your entire world view to focus on making your life the absolute best it can be. I have renewed meaning and purpose. I am actively reconnecting with my spirituality.
Now please share more about YOU. 😊
