Hope
|
I wonder every time I
want to write, what to write
and from where do I begin. I
am not going to write about
a dear friend or a love
relation, it is rather a
story and it is for sure a
lovely one. It is better to
live with a challenge rather
than to live just to live,
with the challenge you learn
a very important and nice
thing in life, HOPE.

Keeping Head Up
|
I was enjoying a
wonderful expat life in
Kuwait until the summer
holiday in Denmark where on
July 4th 2009; I found a
lump in the left breast
after a routine
self-examination under the
shower. It wasn't a shock;
there is so much educating
literature everywhere. The
lumpectomy was performed
shortly after. But I got
goose bumps when 2 more
lumps in the lymph system
were found a month later.
Obviously, time was against
me! So, I was literary
counting days for the
treatment to start!

Message of Hope
|
I was 40 years old
when I first noticed a lump
in my left breast, I
immediately knew it was not
good. In a matter of few
days the diagnosis was made
and when the doctor told me
I had a cancer , it was each
in turns , shock , horror ,
fear, panic, anger, worry,
denial , scare ,
devastation, anxiety ,
confusion , depression ,
sadness, uncertainty and
loneliness ; in a word to
me, it was death sentence.

Amazing Generosity
|
It was in 2003 when
for the first time I noticed
a small lump in my armpit
close to my breast, I knew
something was going on
however , unfortunately , I
did not pay too much
attention to it , too busy
and excited preparing for
the arrival of my sister
from Philippines. It was my
sister who obliged me to
seek a medical advice. In
Kuwait I was advised to have
a biopsy of this suspicious
tumor and then treat
accordingly.

The Impossible was
Possible
|
I was under regular
follow-up at the cancer
center when after three
years on January 2009 my
doctors detected by
mammography during one visit
that there was a lump now in
the other breast. Because of
the advanced stage of my
cancer (stage 3) my doctor
advised me to have a right
mastectomy as well. Sadden
by the news I had no other
choice then agree. After
surviving a second major
operation , I taught I was
done but sadly I have to
undergo chemotherapy since I
did not had that kind of
treatment after my first
operation.
