My Fight, My Life, My views on life
A Mothers loss
I can’t speak for a woman or a mother because well I’m not one, what I can speak about are mine own observations and experiences.
One of the worst most emotionally painful things I’ve witnessed is a mother losing her child. Its not supposed to happen yet it does far to often. I can’t imagine the pain that a parent feels. I sat here tonight watching a mother do just that. She’s losing her daughter and there is nothing anyone can do.
No matter the cause whether it be this demon I know so well and have fought, or a random accident the pain is the same for that mother.
Our givers of life bear our greatest gift and suffer our greatest of pains.
Stem Cell Research
Don’t let drug companies nor Religious fanatics stop this research. They are the ones lobbying congress and Senate to pass the bills to block this research. Why am I so adamant about this?
I was cured by a case study using stems cells. Stem cells harvested from me, grown for a direct purpose to combat my particular cancer. I was the first patient to agree to this particular case study. Now 2236 kids, all under the age of 15 have been cured of this horrible disease. What makes this something is it was done without the use of chemotherapy drugs that are a up to 6 decades old. Think about it, why have we not had better, something not so invasive? Who’s stopping the use of these new methods?
Who stands to lose the most with stem cell research? So when the laws are brought up to stop stem cell research my response to anyone opposed to allowing stem cell research.
Go fuck yourself.
In love
Being in love is a wonderful thing.
Days like this
Days like this I’m happy that I have such good friends and people who love me. Today was a very shitty day in everything non medical. From waking up late to car problems then major issues at work. Some of it I could control but most of it I had no control over.
I started to go down the old road of anger and stress and let it get to me and effect me. Right when it was starting to get to me though my phone chirped. Right at the perfect time I was told to let it go and that I was better than all that was going on and not let it get to me. There was a lot more said but I won’t bore you with it. It was hard to do but I listened to her. Instead of getting mad I just let it go. Does itbstill bother me? Yes I’m only human but I’m not letting it rule me and ruin the rest of my life. Because she was right. All of that petty stuff just isn’t worth it. Her love and advice were. I chose to hold onto that and had a decent day.
Thanks Booboo
What is different?
What is different in my life? As of tomorrow I’ll be in remission for 10 months. I’m almost at the halfway mark for the longest remission I’ve been in. So what’s so different this time around then the last? The simple answer is me the not so simple answer is many many things. Love, family, friends, roommates, the list goes on. I don’t think it’s any one thing I think it’s a combination of it all.
One bit of advice I can share, don’t give up on your dreams boys and girls. Dreams do come true. For a long time I thought I was holding onto a fantasy that could never come true but in the last few months I’ve had two dreams come true for me.
One I’m healthy again and I’ve beaten the odds again.
Two I’m in love and she’s in love with me. Even with all of my faults.
Enjoy life boys and girls, I am.
