As the title suggests I have recently and rapidly been diagnosed with cancer.
I went to the ER Nov 23, 2025. For water retention and bloating. That turned out to be that they found a large 18 cm mass basically across my abdomen. I got transferred to a different Hospital and got 5 litters of fluid (11 pounds) removed and some testing done.
Took a few days but by Dec 2nd I was going in for surgery to remove said mass. Which turned out to be a few cysts and tumors that where on my ovaries, my appendix as also removed due to it also looking like something was wrong with it.
The surgery was a success and I now sadly have no way of reproducing and will be going through menopause soon. All those things and the like turns out that im stage 3, even if its a low grade. You can imagine how I am feeling now after my sister getting diagnosed with cancer and now i have a similar one.
If I didn't feel a burden before, this is just ya....
I got out of the hospital, Dec 6th and starting the steps on going through chemo and the like but I worry I may not really be able to fully go through with that step because congress not passing things.
So will I be one of the millions that losses there health care we will see, I have 9 days till what fate has in stored next.
Sorry to be a downer, I really just wanted to let folks know whats happening. Happy Holidays, I wish everyone well and merry times and good memories for all.
Love ya all for reading.

We know life sucks. But we keep living it to spite its constant attempts to take us out of it. Least I am.
Sides, I still have a little brat cat that needs me to care for her. And after that, likely another. I'll go when it's time to go.
Fortune favor us both, even if it's only a little bit.
I... I just want to tell you, even if I have never dealt with cancer directly as in, dealt with it myself, at least yet, my aunt has been struggling with it and pretty much the same kind as, at the very least, they had to remove her ovaries as well because of tumors and troublesome masses that should not have been there. She seems to be doing ''okay'' now even if it's of course not great, her health is still fragile and it is not sure if cancer will not reappear later or even if it's fully gone since, it is often more complex than that and I do always worry about her, I have always a thought about her in my mind.
I know it must be hard to think positively in such cases and I am so sorry you have to go through this. That said, please, do not give up and show life that even if it can really be rough sometimes, you're still standing and will keep standing up for yourself. Keep going, you're loved and appreciated by many friends and/or other dear ones in your life as well I am sure.
You're not a downer. Not everything is fun and happy, such is life. I do hope you can still celebrate Holidays and have merry celebrations, notably a merry Christmas.
Love you too. I may not know you personally but my heart is always with good people, and even more those in need, whatever it may be.
Not sure what I can say or do to help ya out, or comfort you. Other than just say that I root for you and hope for the best.
