The title, though, may be a severe understatement. I'm not sure if anyone's noticed, although, with the activity being kinda low in some ways lately, I'm not sure if anyone has really noticed my declining, or at least delaying in posting. Well, part of the reason is because for most of the week, since Monday night to be exact, I have had something weighing on my mind.
What it is scares me and worries me to death at the very same time.
What is it?
I think that I might have colon cancer, the same cancer that my grandmother first had, before it spread throughout her body and eventually killed her after a long-fought battle. I've looked up the symptoms and I've found that I have almost every single one for the local colon cancer on the about.com page for it.
So, today, I'm going to try and meet with a doctor here on campus and talk to him/her about it all and get an opinion on it and possibly set up an appointment to run tests and such. I hope that I don't have it, but from just looking at the list of symptoms, the chance of me not having it looks slimmer and slimmer each time I take a look at that page.
And to top it all off, my grandfather, not the one that was married to my grandmother that died, has another type of cancer, of which I can't quite remember at this moment.
Along with that, my grandfather who was married to my grandmother is in the hospital, currently, after having not eaten much, if any, in the past few days. He's been down in his back and his legs haven't been wanting to work ever since, much.
And so, yeah...just letting everyone know.
