Cancer is a living HELL, but as you suffer through Hell you meet new people, that don't care what you look like or even where you come from. You gain a new perspective on life. You look at every moment as if it could be your last.
When you walk into a cancer clinic you do not see people suffering in misery, but you see normal, smiling children who's lives have been turned in an uncontrollable spiral.
If you ask every cancer patient if they are scared that the cancer might come back, they do not face the question with fear but with courage and a will to kick cancer in the ass another time! If you were to ask me if I'm mad that I got cancer, the answer would have to be yes, but I would never wish anyone to have to go through that Hell in my place! Cancer is Hell and you have to fight every day for your right to stay on this earth, but that fight made me a stronger and more driven individual.
Getting cancer is not a club that you would be willing join, but it is a change in your life that can make you a better person or drive you down in pain. I admit I had trouble at some points wanting to continue, but in those times of doubt I had my family to help he though the pain! I realized that I choose what happens, I decided that I was not going to let this Hell win! I was not going to let it take me from this world and my family.
I would have to say that I am one of the lucky ones. I'm still alive on this Earth, still taking in deep breaths of air, and enjoying the company of my family and friends.
Every night when I lay in my bed and look up at the ceiling I think about all the children and their families that are not as lucky as I was, and have gone through changes that will never be overcome.
I shave my head every year to try and give as much as I can back to community. I shave so I can bring awareness and support to the fight against childhood cancer. I shave my head for the families and children that have to go through this Hell. But most of all I shave to honor all the friends that I have lost and that are still fighting in this terrible hell!
