@vee.def: What a weird time to be alive. Doing well and optimistic, still healing from chemo, hair growing back, considering going back to work soon, all while still having cancer in my lungs just dealing with scanxiety and hoping every three months it hasn’t spread or come back in another part of my body. #cancerfighter #cancersucks #ewingsarcoma
My experience Vee is to stay positive and TRY not let cancer get into your head. 11 years ago I was diagnosed with Multiple Myeloma (38 at the time) rare case for that age, it's and elder's cancer. I've done stem cell transplant and chemo in those 11 yrs. Chemo was mainly pills I was lucky to take. I continued to live my life that whole time. Farming is my life. This April I was diagnosed with another cancer - like you it's Ewing Sarcoma (youth cancer) again odds are against me because I turning 50 this fall. What luck do I have, 2 cancers and totally opposite of each other plus the factor of my age. My biggest factor for trying to let it not get into my head is my partner, my grandbaby, my family and my friends is what gives me life and hope. The rest is not important - work and the negatives. Currently I'm very fortunate that I'm feeling better and I'm making the best of life I can without letting my 2 cancer try and take it over.

Yup. Living life 3 months at a time but 7 years and counting so 🤷♀️. I put it out of my mind for 88 days (except for a few seconds every morning taking daily meds) and then hold my breath for that scan/labs week. Annnnnnd repeat. Better than the alternative so I feel very lucky🍀 but sometimes it’s too much and I get sad for a minute. I try to shake off the scan scaries the best I can. My plan has always been to be the ‘outlier’ in their prognosis normal distribution curve. 🩷 to you.

It feels sooo weird. My scans are clear technically but the reoccurrence rate is so freaking high it feels like everyone is just waiting for when it comes back not if… im leaning into the “if” personally
