I was diagnosed with osteosarcoma in my femur on 29th of February 2016. I was 16 years old...
What I struggled with most was seeing everyone around me move on with their life and mine just stood still. I wasn't normal compared to all of my friends.
I lost many other cancer patients that I met through my journey and I felt so guilty to still be here without them. They became my family.
I lost many friends that couldn't deal with me being sick so they stopped speaking to me and would ignore me.
I became quite depressed while going through treatment as I was always either stuck in a hospital bed or at home staring at the same four walls.
Still to this day whenever I get any ache or pain in my body I always think the worst.
Each day I always have a moment where I think about my journey. I still struggle everyday with what I've been through and how many people I've lost. So everyday I just tell myself I'm a fighter and to be positive and take everyday as it come.
