It's not my present picture
I was diagnosed of lung cancer last 6 years ago. Yes that's true.
We have inheritance of cancer, my tita has a malignum cancer, she dead last year. My mother has a skin cancer but she survived. My cousin has a bone cancer also and died 3 years ago. I thought I am free from cancer now because my doctor declared last 3 years ago that I am free. Well fault alarm I guess. And after the doctor declared it, I tried to bring back my life into normal, exercise, going somewhere, I can go out with my friends.
I Disobey my doctor, I don't want to have a fallow up check up after knowing everything, which is my bad, (it's my decision) not because I'm so hard headed but that time, I found out that we don't have lot anymore, we don't have cows, carabaos, goats and chickens. Everything was gone and it's all because of me, because of my cancer. 😢They trying to convince me to go back to hospital but I didn't.
I tried to work as a cashier in mall since I did not finish my degree because of what happened to me.
But I know something happen and not necessary. I can't sit properly, it's too painful especially in my pelvic bone, I thought it was just a part of menstrual period because it happens on my first day of menstruation. After a month, I decided to go for check up (just me) the doctor said I need to undergo EXRAY but it turns out negative. I must admit I was happy then when the doctor said It was just a U.T.I.
Fast forward ➡
Last week I felt so helpless. They can't hold me, they cant massage me and I started to lose my weight. From 43 kilos now its 35 kilos and everyone notice it. I must admit to my self it's really painful to the point that you want to stop your breathing. They just staring me and trying to help me but they can't touch me. They bring me to hospital.
After that I undergo biopsy and the result is I am positive from bone cancer stage 1a.At this stage, thecancer cells are still localized to the bone, and the tumor is considered low grade but it easy to spread because I already experienced cancer before.
Another trouble for us especially to my family. I want to give up my life but they trying their best to help me.😭

:((( I'm so sorry to hear this. Health-related stuff is very scary. My grandfather was a PhD in chemistry, so they think that had something to do w how he acquired bone cancer. He lived for quite some time after being diagnosed, but I know it is one of the most painful.
To relate to you, I went to doc myself last year after pain in my back--turns out I had blood clots in both lungs. They fixed me up and sent me along, and, like you, I didn't want to think of it again. Now the pain is back, and I fear the worst that it may be serious now. But I will be brave and go to doctor like you did. I am a 34 year old man lol. I have lived a good life, and you are still quite young. Listen to your doctor (if it is reasonable). Also, they give you medicine for the pain (maybe) TAKE IT. It will help your quality of life (usually) for the time being, but listen to your body.
Love to you and your family. PEace

Yes, everyone says I'm too young for this, I'm just 22 years old, but we don't have a choice right? All we need to do is to fight. Even sometimes we wanted to give up. You inspired me:) thank you!!@gjones15

I read your blog with tears in my eyes. I know how frightening any diagnosis of cancer is and especially when there is so much in your family. I wish you well as you fight this. I hope you can find a state of comfort, free of pain. Fight hard and have faith. There may be a light at the end of the tunnel.

My family and friends are here to support me, and I'm so lucky to have them. But in case of pain they can't even touch me. I want to hold my to ease the pain and I'm trying to hide it but still I can't. It's too hard. Like yesterday, I didn't update and reply to all of your comments because someone happened again. Thanks for keeping me positive @grandam.

It seems as though you have had a very tough rough fight here, but you have handled it with a lot of grace and toughness, in my opinion because you have confronted it "head on." Your family seems like a great group of people doing as much as they can. I know it seems hard to accept their help and attention, as you think it may seem as a bother or a "drag" on their lives but it is not. The fundamental reason for their lives is your life. The fundamental reason for your life is to enjoy your life as fully as you can, with those closest to you. A time like this may feel like a blur, because it truthfully is, but in my opinion it is best when you let them help you and seek the best advice possible. I hope that you are able to find a way to minimize the pain you feel and go on and live as 'normally' as you can, because that seems to be what you want. The greatest burden on your family is not you but the pain that you feel in a situation entirely not your fault. I am hopeful that you are able to find a way to overcome this, as I have seen many people in my life with a cancer diagnosis at a young age live very long and fruitful lives. I wish the best of luck, I wish there were more I could do for you at this time than some encouragement and a 100% upvote on steemit, resteem, but this community does care and there is always strength in numbers when it comes to mind, body and spirit. Best of luck @philippinessteem!

The best thing you can do for yourself and your family is to not give up. They don't want to lose you and will do anything to have you alive. Many things can be replaced, but your life and beauty in their world and in ours cannot be. Don't give up.

Pearlyn Joy DEJILLO, hello. Your friend Jenebeth C. Gumba suggested that I read your blog. I believe we need to get a lot of people to resteem this blog entry. The more Steemians who read it, the more good wishes and hopefully financial help you can receive.
If people send you STEEM or SBD cryptocurrency, do you already have a way to convert it into fiat currency that you and your family can use? If not, perhaps Jhen or another Steemian from the Philippines can help you make such an arrangement.
I believe you do need help and should ask for help directly in a comment on this blog post where more Steemians will see it as we persuade more and more people to get this post resteemed.
Instead of giving up your life, please ask for help.

We need to keep getting this post resteemed so that others who can afford to help you more will see it. Once this post is 7 days old, it cannot be resteemed further, so you will need to make another post then. Updating us every week, or even more often, will keep the lines open.

@smylie2005 thank you so much, I don't know how to say this but my father is doing his very best. He ask for the assistance of PCSO for my first chemo. My cancer is just stage 1a there is a big chance to survive but this is my second time and my cancer cells are too active. I need to be careful in times of food and surroundings it may affect my condition. More power to you. 😊
