"Your life is worth living, simple tests and gaining knowledge is the key to the best life. And helping educate others is saving lives. I was given a gift of life, and sharing my story and resources has saved lives. Don’t be ashamed of the diagnosis, and share, because you don’t know who you will help!"

I had been so tired. Thought it was my hormones, went in for some testing, and it was determined that due to my level of anemia I had a slow bleed and had to get that checked out immediately.
Fast forward a month, I was more tired. And had initial test results that with my elevated white blood cells I knew there was something serious. I was able to get in for a colonoscopy and endoscopy and woke up the doctor telling my dear friend Allison and I that I had a very large tumor, likely had Lynch syndrome, and I had a CT scan scheduled for that afternoon. My gastroenterologist is amazing, and ensured that I was getting immediate care.
I was scared but so relieved to finally have an answer why I couldn’t get off the couch, why I was out of breath walking up stairs and why I had no desire to live my crazy, amazing life.
