MY CRAPPY CONDITIONS

Cancer is an emotionally charged, frightening prospect. In the early 1900s, one in 20 people developed Cancer. In the 1940s, one in 16 people developed Cancer. In the 1970s, it was one in 10. It is one in three. Now it’s 1 in 2 women and in men, 1 in 3. So what is Cancer? “Cancer is the name given to a collection of related diseases. In all types of Cancer, some of the body’s cells begin to divide without stopping and spread into surrounding tissues.” Some Cancers grow quickly and spread. Others grow very slowly and creep up on you. I had a grade 4 Glioblastoma brain cancer. Most cancers have 4 grades 1, 2, 3, and 4. Glioblastoma has only one: grade 4. That alone would be a very heavy load for me to bare.

I also had a Hemorrhagic Stroke. I. e.  A Hemorrhagic Stroke is when the arteries in your brain bleed or rupture, causing a loss of blood supply to and/or bleeding on a part of your brain, and resulting in brain tissue damage, or death. I was fully paralyzed on the right side of my body.

A Seizure is the physical findings or changes in behavior that occur after an episode of abnormal electrical activity in the brain.

I had a broken wrist.

I also broken metatarsal.

I also had subluxation of the shoulder.

I was given 4 months to live by every doctor both here and in England.

I had pains that were so bad that I wanted to commit suicide.

Lastly a fifth of my brain was missing because of the glioblastoma  meme

Now it’s six years, and beyond.
