Mitzi: It has always helped to share my journey with the big C Mitzi Bault is a beacon of light to many who share her plight, living with and through Cancer. She is a survivor two times over. She is now challenged for the third round and she says "it's bad but I've been here before and I'm not giving up." She is in a study with two specialists who brought her through it before. She began a new trial medicine this week and shares her journey. "I will breathe, I will think of solutions. I will not let my worry control me. I will not let my stress level break me. I will simply breathe. And it will be okay, because I don't quit." By Mitzi Bault Everyone looks at, and does things, differently. It has helped me through the years to tell my story. Just because you hear the big C word does not mean your life is over. My journey started in the 90s with Skin Cancer, on to Breast Cancer, then Ovarian Cancer. Then it was back to Breast Cancer then back to Ovarian Cancer. Over all, YES, I had to fight - I have a great support system and I am going to keep fighting as long as I can. Sometimes life can come at you very hard. That is what happened to Ricky and me Tuesday. We made a trip to my Oncologist in Louisville. It was a long day for us. After having many tests, this is where I am. I responded very well to a Platinum-based Chemotherapy in 2007 with stage 3-c Ovarian Cancer. Then in 2012 the Ovarian Cancer returned as Metastatic Cancer on my Pancreas, Liver and Spleen. Somehow, after years of Chemo it just stopped growing. Just before Thanksgiving I started not felling well. After a few days in Louisville Norton Hospital, tests showed that my Ovarian Cancer had started growing and I was loosing a lot of blood from my Colon. I now have a large mass of Ovarian Cancer that is attached to my Colon, Liver, Spleen, Kidney, Lung, Stomach, Pancreas. We were told yesterday that it is too invasive to remove. But, I am starting this morning on a new trial drug called Rubraca, specific to Ovarian Cancer. If this drug works for me, the goal is to try to slow the growth. You see, I am a lucky gal. I am married to the love of my life, Ricky Bault, who has been by my side through all this. I am blessed with wonderful children, family and friends. Well, part of my friends really aren't friends, they have turned into my Sisters. No one is promised tomorrow. So you need to make every day count. Life is not about things, it's about the love of life and the people in it. Lots of Love from McKinley Lane... 'Nite. This story was posted on 2018-12-02 19:03:13
