So stupid me...I wanted to get cancer policies just in case, so I did and waited another month for them to take effect. Then I decided to see the Doctor, and it was Cancer...I should not have waited so long. It has only been 17 days since I found out. Im already 2 surgeries in. I dont know how aggressive the Cancer is, but luckily I found a doc that is taking things serious and wants to do them quickly. He says since I waited so long, he doesn't want it to get any worse. Im praying for you. All these people are here for you.
