I wanted to take a minute and share what I have been going through this last week. I was hit with the devastating news that a lump in my breast maybe cancerous. I say may be because one doctor is only 70% certain, because of that we are currently waiting on the results from a second opinion. If that wasn’t enough I have been battling an incurable disease half my life called Endometriosis. I have had countless surgeries in removing this disease however it seems to return every year. So yet again I was struck with the news that is was back. I thought my world would stop or even possibly end if I was ever hit with the “C” word. Yeah I broke down and cried for about 10 minutes, but there were some very inspiring people who would not allow that. One being the man in my life, he has been a godsend through all of this. He has shown me that there is still a lot of strength in me, and that I must press on. He has been very optimistic and has found the positive in such a negative situation. I wanted to take time out and thank a few people who have been very inspirational to me, and their kind words have kept me going. These are my twitter favs, thank you so much to @alex_242 @DonLorenzo20 @NoE_pv @MrYoungCEO @DRock813 @AbbyLuna @Endubya @DALLASAUSTIN and the one who has brought me to tears with her kind words @ASS_PoPwRiTeR. If it wasn’t for all these wonderful people pushing me each day I don’t know if I would have the strength to keep it going. I have taken a long look at my life these last few days. I see things more clearly and have become more appreciative for those in my life. I have started to love harder as well. It is such a sad thing that people have to be hit with tragedy in order to find gratitude. I know I have a lot of fight in me, and when I don’t I know I have a wonderful support group that will put the fight back in me. I am not ready to give up on life, maybe this is now my opportunity to start living my life. Each breath I now take feels like I am breathing for the very first time. Thank you Dallas for creating such a wonderful movement. If it was not for you and the members of this movement I don’t know if I would of found my inner strength. I may not know most of these people personally but I can tell you they are in my heart. Thank You again!!
