I never foresaw redeeming cancer as being a part of my life story.
Some of us choose the heroines path and some of us are thrust upon it, and choose it as we surrender to the journey.
This is going to be the most epic story to pass down to my grandkids and I am rising to the challenge, and taking this on as part of my destiny here on earth.
One thing I am very clear on is that I would have manifested cancer in my body no matter my life’s journey.
Wether I am anointed and chosen, or wether I anoint and choose myself — my path is clear before me. I am going to continue to live to the fullest and embody my wholeness, as I learn to trust myself in deeper ways.
Cancer diagnosis, or not.
I received my final biopsy results that complete my final diagnosis, as it will stand in my medical record.
(Confirmed by clinical diagnosis and pathological diagnosis.)
Stage Four Invasive Inflammatory Breast Cancer (Ductal Carcinoma) that has metastasized to the lymph system in two separate areas—the axilla and the chest. (this does not mean I have armpit cancer or chest cancer, it means the lymph glands in those areas have tested positive for cancer so thus it is cancer in the lymph.
I didn’t learn anything new really, from the diagnosis process because I already knew it was inflammatory breast cancer and that it was also in my lymph glands, and that it would be at least stage three if not four. I was also confident it was not going to be found in my lungs, which it wasn’t. And all of this before seeing a doctor.
I have not received a shock, and have not experienced any dread or much fear at all during the process of obtaining the diagnosis.
I had time to process my emotions before I ever shared the news with my family…before I ever even saw a doctor.
It is believed by the doctors that if I do not follow the proposed treatment plan (which would keep me in menopause for ten years and would likely leave me sterile) that I will succumb to cancer (die) within a relatively short period of time.
Again, this does not stress me out or strike fear within me and I am confident as I move forward in the healing process.
