Thanks Cancer! Exhaustion and brain fog, swollen head. I begged my doctor for a blood test. He didn't think anything was wrong with me. I saw him every week for 6 months, telling him it's serious. Thankfully I felt a lump in my breast, so he couldn't deny me anymore. My oncologist said my

Thanks Cancer! I got full off just eating a cracker and stomach would hurt immediately after eating anything every day for months when I finally went to my doctor he examined me had me do a Cat Scan and was diagnosed with Pancreatic Cancer on X-Mas eve.

Thanks Cancer! Katie I missed the beginning stages, but I experienced similar support from a number of people in the community. Still do. It makes all the difference. ☮️

Thanks Cancer! I found a lump in my breast and surgery and two years later on my check they found lung cancer. 8 years later I’m fine. Thanks to God

Thanks Cancer! Pain in my breast, followed by a red rash and my whole breast swelled up and the skin went dimpled. No lump so I put off going to the doctor for several months as I didn't want them to think I was just an attention seeker. It was #inflammatorybreastcancer.

Thanks Cancer! after a random upper-body day my left tit suddenly had a sharp pain, it went quick but then my n*p starts to bleeeeeeed, rush to my doc then some urgent screening and biopsy referrals later……. uh oh💁‍♀️

Thanks Cancer! Shitting blood on New Years day.

Thanks Cancer! had a slight indentation (your average person wouldn't even notice it) first mammogram & then off to the races

Thanks Cancer! Seizure ... which started 14 months of driving dependence. Learned to better appreciate support systems/family/friends, 🧠, and neurology = silver lining.

Thanks Cancer! Received a recall letter following my first mammogram, had a biopsy and told there and then it looks like you have cancer - shows the importance of breast screening - saved my life!

I don't go on FB often, but when I do, I see a Facebook memory of a post where my mom commented and it breaks my heart all over again. 💔

“She’d Be Proud” by Michael Whelan My mother died when I was twenty-two. Still a boy in many ways barely formed, still fumbling through the fog of who I was and what I might become. She didn’t get to see much. Not the career I carved with bleeding hands, not the woman I would

Chalk one up for the husbands today! I listened correctly to my wife and did what she said, in the end she was mistaken and admitted it 🤣🤣 (my wife is awesome btw I’m just giving her a hard time )

Susan Janie Johnson - America is Exceptional Surprisingly, I find that most cancer patients are in the “find a million reasons to love life and be happy” category. We have learned that life is precious and worth fighting for. Thanks Cancer!

Projectile vomiting 🤮 daily. Endoscopy showed nothing so I was ignored. Finally went to the ER. Doctor thought it might be pancreatitis so he did a CT scan. Stage 4.

Unfortunately the cancer finally won the battle my wonderful wife fought a long hard battle but never complained or gave up hope she died a peaceful death surrounded by family and she wants everyone to know she is ok

Oops… I was gonna make beans for dinner and somehow forgot between this morning and now.😂

Thanks Cancer! another sad loss of a community member. May she journey and rest in peace.
