I want to share this video because I feel like it is important to share. I recently hit a huge milestone and have surpassed eight years with no evidence of disease. While that is a huge milestone, and I am so grateful for each and every day, I find myself grieving a loss that Cancer took from me. Sometimes it’s hard to put things into words and just come out and talk about it so I decided to write something so that I could get the message I wanted to convey, across. Although an article would have sufficed, I wanted people to feel the emotion behind what I was saying, so I decided to record me reading what I had written. I truly hope that my words are able to help someone who might have gone through the same thing or in the future will go through the same thing. My number one goal in sharing this is to raise awareness and to make women feel and understand that what they are feeling is valid and that raising your voice isn’t having an attitude or being difficult. Your health, your body, your mind, your words and your concerns are sacred and what you’re feelings are matter! Don’t ever feel like asking a question or advocating for yourself is being difficult.
