Cancer -one scary word

Cancer

I got the cancer diagnosis yesterday. Which means officially I am a cancer survivor!

Yet my world is calm, I am at peace, practicing my own Surrender Experiment (read Micheal Singers book by that name).

Meanwhile the people around me are freaking out, stressing and asking how I am doing.

Even my surgeon commented on how calm I was when we discussed the next steps post surgery.

On Monday, September 25, I had a complete hysterectomy based on a precancerous biopsy of the uterus. What they found instead of precancerous cells in the uterus, was stage 3 endometrial cancer. I went home that day and have been rapidly recovering. Being in shape and eating right allows you to recover. HRV is still a bit low, but is hovering in the low green zone. Heck, I do have 3 inch incision in my abdomen. Sleep is excellent. Diet, well, I need to eat more, but that is difficult when the usual hunger signals are still messed up.

Next steps will most likely involve chemo and maybe radiation treatment. I am not wild about this but strive to get as strong as I can as fast as I can before the insults begin. I will keep you all updated.

My message to you all, as an inspire purpose is to tell you to get in shape, stay there, do what you can to remain as healthy as you can because it will pay off when you least expect it. Mind your diet and activity.

I believe this is all part of my path, of what will influence me for the next 20 years. Inspiration on a different level. Not sure what it all looks like just yet, but it’s all following the right time line for change in my life as it has happened in the past. I knew this year was a year for a major change in life. October is the month. Right on schedule!

BTW, I was in a high risk for uterine cancer: past 59 and never had children.
