To live every breath

I began passing blood in my urine. That’ll scare the daylights outta ya.


Went in for a biopsy, stayed for the removal, never looked back. God is good!

Now every 6 months I get scoped. After the last Doc says every 12 for a scope every 6 for a pee test. Boy am I gonna miss getting scoped. The thing looks like a straw and feels like a sewer line.

WOW What a welcomeViews: 376

Thanks for the wonderful welcome. I hope I can offer hope and healing, as well as receive it.

I understand about feeling understood when you are around others who have walked the same path. I am a biker and a dad and a pastor and a tattoo collector and a survivor. I will fight everyday to make sure cancer does not define who I am. It will never be more than something I have been allowed to experience.

I enjoy being in this place, with fellow survivors and caregivers and those who have tasted loss and still come. May we all be a shoulder and a crutch and a support and in need, as well as needed.

Be blessed, all who stop here. Rest and enjoy your every moment, good or bad.

Mac
