so those of you who may or may not know. i didn't get some good news on Friday. for the past few weeks i was having pain and excessive bloating in my lower abdomen. i finally went in to Dr. Chen and told her whats going on. i asked her if she thought maybe it had to do with the radiation. she said normally if i was going to have any type of pain it would be where i was getting radiation. when she listened to my abdomen she said she could definitively hear things are moving very slowly in there and that's why i was feeling full. she scheduled a CT scan ASAP to see whats up.
i went for my CT scan last Thursday and got my results on Friday morning. found out i have a bunch of little tiny tumors all up in my intestines. these little tumors are what cased things to slow down in my digestive system. i was happy to finally be able to have an answer but man it felt like hearing i have cancer all over again. it was so hard to hear. i knew going into this battle was going to be hard but i didn't think how much it was going to hurt.
all day Friday and over the weekend all i could think of was how much of a failure i was. am i doing something wrong? did i say something not right? i don't get it! i thought i was doing so well. i feel so many things right now. one things for sure is i don't feel like giving up. this just has to be a little bump or trip through my which feels like an endless journey.

Jaunita, I'm very sorry to hear that your cancer has spread. Certainly, there is no logic to this disease, I have always known you as a kind and joyful person and I am sure that you do not deserve any of this.
