Why I Created this Blog

Information is power!  I was very sick when I was diagnosed with Gastric Cancer.  I did not have a working computer (no laptop) at the time.  I had recently acquired a Smart Phone and quickly started learning how to go and research... and it was so scary, all I really could find were my odds.  They were GRIM to say the least. 

Japan seemed to have the most experience with this particular cancer and that wasn't getting me anywhere.  I started searching blogs and I  found a lot were other Survivors looking for help, answers... information.  (Truthfully most of the bloggers seem to be loved ones, of Survivors.) 

Important:  I define a Survivor as someone still here!   Still fighting!  Still has QUALITY of Life!  Also important is that I am an upfront, upbeat, honest person.  If you can't handle the truth, don't ask the question.  : )

MOST IMPORTANT seemed to be that we had 2 things in common - Caught too Late and to a lesser degree, long history of digestive troubles.  Most of them older than me, and doctors tend to shy away from any aggressive treatment then.   I was lucky.  I was strong.  I had to tell the doctors what I could do, that I was worth it.  Here I am!  I want to see others say the same too!  :)

I did the best I could and usually was one head-a-step of my docs for most of the time.  But that's me, that's how I got through it.  It was the only way I could have any control over what was happening to me.  I have spent the last couple of days learning how to create a blog and joined the CSN (Cancer Survivors  Network).  They have an area specific to Gastric Cancer.  There are a lot of posts, mostly questions.  I hit a bunch of the most recent posts, especially 'just joined' posts and showed them my profile from here and invited them to view my page. 

I feel this is incredibly important if I can help just 1 person.  It is all worth it.  I have never communicated with any support groups, etc.  My family and friends have been amazing.  For the most part, I have spent all of my time since completing treatment; either running (appreciating travel) or resting/recovering from surgery and chemo. 

Currently, I notice some anger/hostility over the last month (road rage too) and I believe I just hit another stage of my cancer.  : (   oh well...  1 more down  : )


Enough for now,
Fortunate One

Live for Today, Fight for Tomorrow :)

  1. Here is a great herbal doctor who cured me of hepatitis B his name is Dr. Iyabiye. I suffered hepatitis B for 11 years, I was very weak with pains all over my body my stomach was swollen and I could hardly eat. And one day my brother came with a herbal medicine from doctor Iyabiye and asked me to drink and I drank hence there was no hope, and behold after 2 week of taking the medicine, I started feeling relief, my swollen stomach started shrinking down and the pains was gone. I became normal after the completion of the medication, I went to the hospital and I was tested negative which means I’m cured. You too can be safe if interested.
