Patient Just got diagnosed

This weekend was absolute chaos and clusterfuck. I went to the ER on Saturday for what I thought was a persistent stomach bug.

After a CAT scan of my stomach and a battery of tests this weekend, I was diagnosed with stage 4 metastatic cancer.

They did a biopsy Sunday, to see if they can determine where the cancer is coming from.

I also have another CAT scan coming up to see if it has expanded into my chest and lungs.

I really have no idea what I'm looking for, I'm still trying to process all this.

Also, I am a Satanist for a reason, so please save all the "just give it to God" or etc bc it's not something I personally believe in.

Waiting, not knowing, and not having a plan is the hardest part. While you wait, stay as active as possible and through the early stages of your journey It will get harder along the way, but I absolutely believe that continuing to exercise is what has helped me through my journey. Hello

Yeah I have been trying to do just that: enjoy all the little moments while I can and live life to the fullest in every moment.
