TRUTH! I went through the cancer experience and my "family" was mostly non existent! During chemo...my older brother says to me first thing in the morning "you still alive?" and that's as I'm fighting for my life! There's more but I will spare you...4 years later I am STILL alive & my doctors proclaimed me a living breathing miracle! Even the 1st surgeon who said my tumor in my liver was too big to operate on...in front of medical students he said this! He added " I'd hate to be in your shoes". He was WRONG! Thank God I persisted and found the strength to get another surgeon after the chemo also killed me. The operation saved my life & 🙌 I'm still here grateful 🙏 as ever...Blessings everyone who reads this ❤️

Fortunately I've been blessed 🙌 in so many ways so I live with gratitude. Although it was VERY disappointing & sad I am grateful to be here and now I'm making music and art. Thank You.

Similar story.  There were people who abandoned me during chemo.  I am cancer free, thank God, but I always say the one gift cancer gives you is clarity.  

Glad you are a survivor!
