My Cancer Journey! 🩷🎗️ At 21 years old, having battled cancer five times, I never imagined this would be the story I would one day share.For years, I kept my journey inside. Some memories were too painful to talk about, and it was easier to smile and pretend I was okay.I’m sharing my story because if one person going through cancer feels less alone, it will be worth it. I was just 5 years old when my mum noticed a lump on the left side of my temple. After scans and a biopsy, our lives changed forever. I was diagnosed with Ewing sarcoma, a rare cancer in the bone of my temple. I was only a little girl. I didn’t understand what cancer meant. I just knew my life suddenly involved hospitals, chemotherapy and treatments. I went through chemotherapy, blood transfusions and six weeks of proton therapy in America. Eventually, we heard the words we had been desperately waiting for: cancer free. But five years later, it came back. Then again at 14. And again at 18. Each time, I had to find strength. I faced surgeries, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, intensive care, a CSF leak, an infection, a brain shunt and immunotherapy. Then came my fifth battle. At 21, I underwent a 16-hour operation, followed by another five-hour surgery when my skin graft failed. Afterwards, my throat became so swollen that I couldn’t breathe on my own, and I was placed into an induced coma for five days. Now I’m recovering and waiting to find out what comes next. But cancer hasn’t only left physical scars. It has changed my confidence, my identity and the way I see myself. I’ve looked in the mirror and struggled to recognise the person staring back. I’ve worried about my scars, my hair, my ear and how other people see me.Sometimes I’ve wondered who I would have been without cancer. But I’m slowly learning that I don’t have to hide the parts of me that cancer changed. My scars are part of my story. They remind me what I’ve survived. There is still so much more to my journey, but I’m ready to share it. If you’re going through cancer, please remember that you are not alone. You don’t have to be strong every day. Take one day at a time.🩷 by @evebrant_
