I will receive five to five-and-a-half weeks of radiation coinciding with 5-FU chemotherapy. Upon completion of the radiation, I will receive four additional weeks of chemotherapy. From there I will be given six to eight weeks for my body to heal at which point the cancerous tissue will be surgically removed. After I have recovered from the surgery, I will have an additional three to six month regiment of chemotherapy.
My intention is to share my experience as honestly as I know how.
My commitment is to transform our current cultural conversation about cancer from one of fear and dread to one that empowers those of us who have cancer, as well as our friends & loved ones.
I had cancer. Cancer didn't have me.
