Patient Story |

|
Gustavo Endara Germany male Living with CML for 6 years Age: 31 It is certain that the origin of my disease cannot be known. What we do know is that this disease has caught the wrong person, because I am not willing to give cancer a truce, until it gets out to where it came from and does not come back anymore. Although the cancer forced me to change many of my plans, this situation has united me with my beloved ones more than ever. It is a great joy to know that I am not alone in this fight. This has made me lose the fear. I am not afraid of cancer, but cancer is afraid of my decisions. It is afraid that I have chosen a very sophisticated therapy. It is afraid that a great oncologist is treating me. But mainly it is afraid that I have decided to defeat it. I won’t let cancer control my life and my weapons in this fight will be patience, perseverance, faith and gratitude. Gratitude to God, for He gives me the spiritual strength to keep on fighting. Gratitude to my beloved ones for being the base of my fight. Gratitude to my girlfriend for being my inspiration. Gratitude with my doctors for being a great support and with all the patients I have known, for showing me that nobody is alone on this fight. And gratitude to everyone who have offered us their support, to all who have laugh and cried with us, to all who have prayed and lighted a candle for us. With God’s help and the support of my family and friends I will walk with a lot of enthusiasm through this difficult path, until cancer is nothing but a memory. Thanks for reading my essay and may God bless everyone. |
