Thriving with Stage 4 Cancer
I had a little health scare, but all is okay!
Giving profound thanks for continual good health
Aloha friends!
It’s been a while since I posted any health related news. I have been wrapped up in book publishing (did you see that the coloring book version of ‘Comanche the Wild Mustang’ was recently published?) and integrating the profound loss of both of my parents in the past year.
I had a little health scare in the past few months, that shook me up. Fortunately, it turned out to be NOTHING! It took months to get the care I needed, which was tremendously frustrating. When I finally flew to Oahu, the neighboring island, I found out that my scans and everything looks spectacularly pristine! This is pretty amazing to me, considering that 4 years ago I was recommended to Hospice and dying with cancer through out my breast, lungs, liver, spine, hip and adrenal glands!
I shared this post on social media on 11/30/22:
I am abso-tutely clear‼️ Best case scenario 🌀 I am truly stunned & elated❗️
I had a frightening cancer scare of possible ‘reoccurrence’ in the past 2 month, that I only recently shared, as I didn’t want to unnecessarily alarm anyone. 😳
What might have turned out to be a devastating situation on top of endless family tragedy of both my parents dying in the past year, has turned out to be a big mass of scar tissue in my breast! 😅
When you’ve been so close to death, like I have, with cancer throughout your body, these circumstances can be downright scary! The mind jumps to worst case scenarios & with the ambiguity of the medical world & fighting for my care & answers, it has been a anxious two month process of not knowing if if it was time to prepare for death, yet again. 🤷♀️
✨ I AM INCREDIBLY GRATEFUL TO BE ALIVE! ✨
In this process, I heard words of wisdom from a lovely new oncologist on Oahu that I am doing REMARKABLY WELL, my CT scans & blood tests are PRISTINE. In fact, my bones that 4 years ago were breaking & full of cancer cells are healed & healing! 🌟
The pain I’ve felt in my breast is the dead mass of a 5 cm tumor. I met with a surgeon & she said that stress can inflame the scar tissue & this year has been mighty stressful!
The affirmation was:
🌟 LIVE YOUR LIFE 🌟
As the late beloved Dawn Higgins Andrew taught us cancer thrivers: DO JOY NOW!
I have had some profound discoveries & a deep awakening of healing in the past few weeks. A big realization is how ancestral trauma is deeply rooted in our DNA. 🧬 I did some powerful work recently to get a shitload of the trauma from my fathers side of the family OUT of my BODY! 🔥 I realized that much of the pain I’ve carried in my lifetime IS NOT MINE! I inherited it! I released that shit through massive tears, screaming, anger release & a dynamic reclamation of my sovereign self. I don’t have to carry my families pain anymore. I am free! ✨ 🦅 ✨
Please know:
🌟You are so much more powerful than you think you are and possess an infinite potential of healing within yourself. 🌟
All you have to do is access it!
Māhalo for ALL the love & support.
I love you.
Aloha Mā
