I was diagnosed in jan. 2021. all i read was that I was going to die. I have almost died 4 times now. this last time I was put in hospice. I woke up the morning that I was transported to another facility after spending 19 days in the hospital. the nurses called my family in to say goodbye. I got to the new place and they looked at me awake and talking. they put me on rehab instead after more than a month and a half I left for home. something happened to my right leg it just didn't work today I just got released from ot and pt. orayers and hugs Shirley
, thank you for sharing your amazing story, Shirley! I am glad you went to a facility that was invested in your well-being, and I am definitely glad you are here! - Warmly, Donna (Team Member)
Had slight post- menopausal bleeding which caused my PC to order TVUS which led to a gyno doing labs( ca125) , which led to surgery with a gyno- oncologist.
, it's wonderful that your doctor was attentive! How are you doing today? - Warmly, Donna (Team Member)
