A day in the life of a young adult with colon cancer! 💙CHEMO ROUND 15!

[@gloriacervantes6607]

Wow what an inspiration you are and a true blessing on this earth. Thank you so much for sharing your journey. I am also a colon cancer survivor. I had stage 3 sigmoid colon cancer. I was diagnosed December 11, 2018. Had colon resection in 2019 and chemo the rest of that year. I admired your positiveness and you take on life. Please keep up the great work and may God continue to bless you and all those around you.

Ody, I am in the exact situation as you! My colon cancer spread to my ovaries and I had a colon resection, total hysterectomy and HIPEC August 2020. I am going through chemo now. But I will have my stoma reversed this coming Monday. I know exactly how you feel. It is very difficult. You are so positive and inspiring. Keep strong and fight! May GOD bless you!

[@odysurvives2111]

Hey Janet! I’m sorry for the late response! How have you been? Are still going through chemo?

[@oreol7810]

@@odysurvives2111 I am only on 5FU right now so it is not too bad. My stoma reversal surgery went really well and my bowel function has almost fully recovered. Thank GOD! I will have chemo mostly likely until June when I have my next scan, and the doctor will decide on the next step then. How are you doing lately? Have not seen your update for a while. Hope things are going well with your treatment. Stay strong! GOD bless you!

My wife has multiple myaloma but I can’t be with her through her hospital treatments because of covid. This helps me visualise what she goes through and understand her better. Thanks and prayers.

Try playing Benny Hinn's healing prayer utube videos. My son had chest pain and it went away when I started playing the video. It was one of Benny Hinn's Live healing utube videos.

[@godislove7500]

I've also heard of a lady was healed because she let Psalms audio play all night while she slept. Reading the bible out loud healed my neck one day and made me feel much stronger physically so every one should do it daily. Look up healing scripture online or try reading any of the bible out loud.

[@dinahsoar6982]

Hey Julio! I'm sure you are a comfort to many people God bless you. Ody: I hope you beat this!! You show much bravery in the face of this formidable foe we call cancer. When I had cancer I didn't give it any power. I thought of it as 'an overgrowth of cells that went were there were not supposed to go". I used imagery: I'd lay down in a quiet room and envision ravaging scavenger wolves searching out and devouring the cancer cells. I did that many times. One day I did it and 'they' could find nothing to eat. That is when I believed my cancer was gone. That was 30 years ago.

Wow! Round 15! I have stage 4 colon rectal cancer. And today I just had my 7th round of chemo. I have my pump hooked up and will return in 46 hours to have the pump removed. My oncologist wanted me to have 12 rounds, so I went and got a second opinion from a larger cancer center. They temple university reviewed my case and suggested 2 changes. 1. A med they wanted to give me avastin I should pass on. 2nd They felt that I only should have 8 cycles of chemotherapy. So my oncologist talked to my doctor at temple and agreed. So I didn’t get that Med and I’m only scheduled for 8 cycles!😀 And today is cycle 7 ya.👍 But this chemotherapy has really done me in physically. My hands are really sensitive to anything cool, and so is my throat. I carry gloves everywhere I go now. I warm all my drinks. But in about 8 days from now I can start to get back to normal again. And even have ice cream!🍦 But then in 2 weeks I start all over again.😬 God bless you making it 15 rounds🙏 I am old enough to be your father so I guess my age isn’t helping me, and your youth is a blessing. Just think it won’t be long and you’ll be cancer free out jogging.

[@odysurvives2111]

Hey Ed! I’m so glad you got a second opinion! I’ve had about three opinions on my treatment plan/ course of action. At this point I’ve had 21 rounds! It sounds insane to say but somehow I’ve endured. I can’t deny chemo has done a number on me too....even if I “look” okay! I have tons of chronic pain, incredible fatigue and not to mention the diet restrictions/limitations. Regardless you and I are still out here giving it our all! So glad you’re inching the finish line! YOU DID IT!!!

Hello senorita. I want to start by saying that your story touched me big time. I am so so scared. On Wednesday Feb 3rd 2021 I will be receiving a colonoscopy to determine why I'm bleeding and why my poop is weird shaped. I'm guessing pollip but I've had this problem for 2 years or so because of the back and forth with doctors. Wish me luck. And thank you for the inspiration. Sincerely..Eddie Ortiz ....

I’ve been trying SO hard to keep weight. During my first line of treatment I could hardly eat because the chemo was SO aggressive (FOLFOX + Oxaliplatin) . Then I had 7 months off chemo and gained 20lbs back which brought me to my current weight of about 160lbs. I have also gained some weight because of the steroids they pump in me. Hete is a video of some of the foods I eat during chemo: kzbin.info/www/bejne/n2nJZ3aDmc6YhtE Hope that is useful!
