This is going to be a little difficult for me to talk about, but I think it's important to raise awareness if anyone else feels like they may be experiencing something similar to what I felt. Recently, I'd been having lower abdominal pain and I figured it was just endometriosis, or I thought it would go away on it's own. Unfortunately we discovered that I have Ovarian Cancer. I recently returned home from the hospital after having a full hysterectomy, and I thought it would be important to share my journey/experiences. Beginning March 25, I will start with my first round of 6 chemo treatments. I am staying positive, and I'm just so happy that I have such a loving family supporting me. Please, if you feel something is not right, don't wait to go see the doctor. My oncologist feels that my cancer has been growing at least a year. I wish I hadn't waited so long to get checked out. Anyway, I will be okay, and we will keep you posted with my medical updates on this site. Thank you for all the love and support coming my way.
