FIGHTING FOR MY LIFE.....

Its been awhile since i've wrote a piece for my blog, and to all those who were reading hoping to see something new from me i apologize. However, for me its been a battle because in 2020 the end of November i was diagnosed with stage 3 CANCER, and I was given a week to live, but i'm still here 5 months later on my last round of CHEMO, and hoping that the CANCER is gone.....

I see life so different now, and i have no more time to waste on stupid things, and things that don't matter because life is to short to stay stuck in the past still trying to change the things that can't be changed, and we can only hope to make a better future to be a better person as a whole.....

This whole situation has made me a stronger man, and has given me the strength to fight through anything thrown my way because I knw now that i'm strong enough to fight off anything that is thrown my way. I always thought I was strong but physical strength wasn't what got me through this CANCER situation, and it was instead my mental strength that got me through this life ending situation because without it i would've gave up awhile back when this first started because it was hard for me to have to deal with situation because no one in my family has delt with anything like this before, so for my entire family this was a fight we had to fight together.....

See in life when we are put through situations that tests us, and our faith, strength, and willingness to fight we either stand tall, and strong or we give up. As you can see i'm still here fighting, and living.....

To all those out there fighting CANCER i say stay strong, and keep fighting because you can make it through this you just have to believe in yourself, and your strength because your not alone i'm fighting this fight with you all.....

Dear Big Heard. I’m not sure why but I saw a video tonight and the dude looked like you and it really made me miss you. So I came to check your blog to see what’s new, just to read the devastating news. I really hope you’re doing well and that you kicked cancers ass! Hope to see something new posted from you soon. Happy holidays sir.

Dear Big Heard, I’m sure you don’t remember me as we only crossed paths for a short while when I worked your unit, but I was watching a show tonight and one of the characters instantly reminded me of you. I remembered you told me about this website so I checked it out to see if you had anything recent, unfortunately the last thing was that you were diagnosed with cancer. I truly hope you beat that, and are doing well wherever you are at these day - I hope this note finds you.
Best wishes XO - L
