It’s Day 30 of Ovarian Cancer Awareness month and I want to openly share with you my struggles with exercise while fighting cancer. I also want to stress the extreme necessity for it, as I have been dearly paying the consequences of not. Movement IS medicine. 🦋

The three most importance reasons to exercise with cancer is:

1) Use it or lose it. Plain and simple.

2) Exercise promotes oxygenated blood flow throughout the body and cancer cells cannot survive in oxygenated environments.

3)Has a profound impact on keeping cancer in remission.

The difficulty for cancer patients is that while in the thick of treatment, the last thing we want to do is walk around the block or lift some weights when it hurts to get out of bed to even p*e. After months of being sedentry, you lose muscle tone and the ability to function without injurring oneself. Case in point: I sublexed both my shoulders working on a computer because my muscles lost their ability to hold everything in place. Result: Months of searing pain and a steroid injection.

Now that I have the motivation to perform light aerobic activities, my heart rate sky rockets and I cant even make it up a flight of stairs without having to pause once or twice. Very sad.

To my cancer p*eps, I strongly encourage you to find ways to move while going through treatment. IT WILL BE HARD, BUT SO IMPORTANT in the short and long run.

Easy tips to start out with:
If you can't get up from your chair, have a caregiver assist with stretching and moving your joints to loosen them up. Find a pool just to walk in while doing arm strokes. On good days, take a SLOW walk to the end of your street and back. Keep it short and sweet and then add a little distance each day. Just don't push yourself too hard and end up injuring yourself or falling.

A couple of my favorite IG accounts are by fellow Ovarian Cancer thriver Emilee Garfield. Follow her and for other great techniques to get your daily movenment in AND feel inspired at the same time!

Always remember… Movement IS medicine.

Day 29 of Ovarian Cancer Awareness month and as we’re bringing the month to a close, I want to make sure you know about the IG Live interview I’ll be doing with tomorrow, September 30 at 12:00 noon PST. We’ll be discussing a variety of Ovarian Cancer related things from what to watch for, fighting cancer and what my superpower has been through this adventure. Be sure to tune in!! 🦋💙🦋

In other news, I have my follow-up brain scan for brain mets in a couple weeks. I’m scared and excited all at the same time. Outside of my cancer friends (cause I know you know the term!), do you know what scanxiety is?

Scanxiety is a term used to describe the anxious feelings that arise in the time leading up to a cancer imaging scan, during the scan, and while waiting for results.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say I have a little bit of that going on right now, but I remain vigilant in focusing on my new approach to fighting cancer and trusting that my body has my back because of the effort I’m putting into my wellness.

Scanxiety, btw, is an excellent topic which I’ll be diving into further in a future post, so stay tuned!

In the meantime, don’t forget about tomorrow’s IG live!

Day 28 of Ovarian Cancer Awareness and I’d like to draw your attention to cancer funding and how cancers are not funded equally.
⠀⠀⠀
While it seems obvious that more research funding should be dedicated to more prominent cancers, there seems to be a HUGE disparity in which cancers receive funding, how much, and why.

A study called the "Comparison of Cancer Burden and Nonprofit Organization Funding Reveals Disparities in Funding Across Cancer Types" published in 2019 revealed some alarming stats and conclusions...
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
In 2015, $4.6 billion was allocated to cancer-related nonprofit organizations such as the American Cancer Society and the breakdown of how it was distributed to specific cancer types was as follows:

Breast Cancer: $460 M
Leukemia: $201 M
Pediatric Cancer: $177 M
Lung Cancer: $92 M
Prostate Cancer: $74 M
Ovarian Cancer: $23 M
*Visit the link below to see the complete list

Researchers found that cancers associated with "stigma" were poorly funded. These include cancers associated with stigmatized behavior, such as smoking, drinking or s*x, as well as those that involve embarrassing body parts, like the colon or reproductive organs.

Dr. Kamath, one of the authors in the study concluded that “Shame and discomfort with talking about our bowels and ’private parts’ may be reducing funding for diseases like colon or endometrial cancer.”

Moral of the story? Time to start talking about our lady bits…time to start SHOUTING about our lady bits! It’s time to ladies!!!

Day 27 of Ovarian Cancer Awareness month and I’m sitting here reflecting on chemo days of the past. 🦋💙🦋

It’s been three weeks since I declined my last Doxil infusion (chemo) and I’m well into the first steps of my wellness journey. As I’m laying here in bed on my 16th day of a water-only fasting and when I feel like I can’t push on, I remind myself of how much worse chemo is than this. Suddenly it doesn’t seem so bad! I’ll take the extreme lightheadedness, starvation, nausea and heartburn over the unrelenting and long-lasting physical pain and damage from chemo.

I am just so excited to have taken charge of my health and regained control over my body and what goes into it. I get my numbers (CA-125) checked again in a week… can’t wait to see how my hard work has paid off!!

Stay tuned! ❌⭕️❌⭕️

Day 26 of Ovarian Cancer Awareness month! As the month nears a close, I want to to focus today's post on my best superpower with fighting this nasty cancer; my resilient positivity and abominable stubborness to not let cancer take that away from me.

While it hasn't been easy, I made the decision to fight cancer with a smile and not let it take the happy from my heart. The only way to do so was to make the decision to remain steadfastly positive. I started by identifying my what and why... What do I love about my life? Why do I want to beat cancer and continue living my life? Upon determining these positive affirmations, it became much easier to celebrate the little wins and the positives, which then kept me on track with fighting for the big win, to be free of cancer.

Positive thinking lifts me out of despair when I’m scared and considering giving up. Without positive thinking, my mind goes to a very dark and scary place thus I must relentlessly find the positive in everything. My positivity IS my fighting strength.

With that said, I won’t deny that it hasn’t been extremely hard on some days. I've to constantly remind myself why I chose life over cancer and then focus on finding the positive amidst the storm. If I can’t find the positive in my cancer progress, then I redirect to the positive in the life I love and why I fight. Afterall, I had just gotten to the best part my life when cancer knocked on my door. I'm not about to roll over and welcome it to get cozy and stay awhile.

I have all the reasons in the world to kick cancer’s butt so I can continue living the life I love. Gratefulness and recognizing my blessings are key players in how I stay positive.

To all my cancer p*eps, find the positive in even the smallest of things. When you can't, give yourself time to find it, but don't stop searching for it.

Day 25 of Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month and I’d like to introduce you to a non-profit organization that touched my heart early on in my cancer adventure... BRCAStrong]. They're a beautiful group of women spreading awareness, promoting education, and bringing hope and joy to the Ovarian and Breast Cancer community.

I connected with BRCAStrong when my doctors presumed I had a BRCA mutation as I'd been diagnosed with both primary Ovarian and Breast Cancer. The BRCA mutation occurs in 1 out of 500 women and if you're mother has the mutation, there is a 50% chance it will be passed on to you.

There are two known BRCA mutations, BRCA1 and BRCA2. The difference between them is the % liklihood of developing both Ovarian and Breast cancer by the age of 70-80.

BRCA1: 39%–44% will develop Ovarian and 55%–72% will develop Breast Cancer

BRCA2: 11%–17% will develop Ovarian and 45%–69% will develop Breast Cancer

The stats are terribly alarming and women are encouraged to have a preventative oophorectomy or hysterectomy AND masectomy at an early age (preferably soon after having children).

In the end I did not have either mutation and it wasn't until my full hysterectomy with debulking surgery 6 months into treatment that my pathology was revisited. Turns out I had an extremely rare form of metastasis from my ovaries to the breast (accounting for 0.03-0.6% breast cancers). Doctors were shocked to learn the nature of my breast cancer and that it was not primary. Luckily the results had come back one week prior to my planned double masectomy and breast reconstruction (2-3 surgeries in total). The breast surgeries were deemed unnecssecary and cancelled!

Back to BRCAStrong... I was sent a beautiful care package for each surgery. The packages included a comfy night-shirt, post-masectomy bra, cute un**es, Thrive make-up set (LOVE), blanket, inspirational book, and my fav... this Medical Planner by Clever Fox. OBSESSED! It's been especially helpful here as I track my progress.

Please check-out my friends over and tell them I sent you! If you're part of the Ovarian or Breast cancer community, then you ESPECIALLY need to reach out to them!
