Mutant C

MutantC

Trying to decode this mysterious disease, in my research I came across an article that said cancer is the result of a genetic mutation. Well, that makes me a mutant. The X-Men are mutants too, right?

They say it takes the most difficult situations to bring out the best in you. And a horrible disease like cancer forces you to gather all your strength and summon your inner superpowers to fight and win.

I have summoned all my inner strength, focus and positivity to beat this yet again. Maybe the second time I'll do it right. Maybe the second time it will all work. Maybe the second time it will go away for good.Whatever happens, I intend to live my life full of happiness and health. If I can't run, I'll walk. But I'll keep moving forward because forward is the only way.

I have many imperfections, laziness, weakness at times, but what I don't have is an excuse - to treat anything more important than my health, to keep fitness a low priority, to not give time to myself.All I aim for is to be healthier today than yesterday - taking it one day at a time.

(I am running the Pinkathon again this year. 3k, thanks to my not-so-strong knees.)
