Cancer
I am a Warrior. Cancer is my enemy.
I have (make that HAD) cancer and I'm gearing up for a fight (make that STILL FIGHTING). I have become a cancer warrior. I've decided to share my battle with anal cancer here for a few reasons. First, I believe prayer is the most powerful weapon there is and I want to give people an opportunity to pray with and for me. Second, I've learned a whole lot since my recent diagnosis and I want to share some of this newfound knowledge; knowledge is power and there might be others out ...
Does the thought of having a colonoscopy scare the living crap out of you? Ah, It's no big thing
You want me to have a what?!!!! and you're going to put what where?!!! I have many friends who would rather have their teeth pulled out without any Novocaine than have a Colonoscopy. And you have probably heard the phrase "I'd rather die from cancer than have a Colonoscopy" The fact is that you just may die from cancer if you don't have a Colonoscopy completed when your doctor suggests and colon cancer is a lot more painful and embarrassing than spending 30 minutes knocked out with a camera...
Is There Life After Cancer?
As strange as it may sound, my life has been enriched by cancer in so many ways. Things that used to be important are not, and in the same vein, things that once were not, now are. My Christian self has changed for the better. I can be grateful that God has brought me through this and asked me to experience it (not that I want to do it again, mind you). Sadly, I've discovered that I am a much better Christian when I am suffering in abject misery; this is not a very flattering thing to realize...
Tuberous Sclerosis and My Family
Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) has been a part of my family for generations. My Mom, brother, sister, niece, cousins, aunts and uncles have all been diagnosed with TSC. The disease affects some people severely, while others are so mildly affected that it often goes undiagnosed. Among the severely affected in my family are my brother, Leivon and my niece, Jussy.

Lung Cancer?! I'm only 29!
On September 18, 2009, I was diagnosed with lung cancer at 29 years old. Contrary to popular belief, there are different types of lung cancer not caused by smoking, environmental factors, or genetics and the tumor found in my right lung falls under this category. When I was first diagnosed, I started writing online to update friends and family on my status and it developed into something so much more. It proved to be extremely therapeutic and I discovered many things about myself during this ...

Enter Stage Left --> Cancer
Cancer is a killer world wide. It robs husbands of their wifes, mothers of their children, children of their parents and people in general of those they love around them. Whenever the word cancer is spoken a hush forms. A sudden quiet. A realization that someone's live is about to change, and not in a good way. Cancer destroys. It not only destroys the body and cells of the one affected, it also destroys the lives it touches. Medical bills pile up. Hearts and families get broken... Cancer.
