What follows in The Early Years : 1974 -1979 section of my posts are my very earliest memories. To read my Prologue, describing my parents, start with Family. These memories have never changed. It's been suggested that my posts may be difficult to follow. People have often asked me how I manage or handle my life. It's not something I can explain. Instead, I've chosen to show everyone what it's like to be me. How I think and how my mind processes information is very much affected by the child abuse, child sexual abuse and any other "abuse" term you wish to use. My memories may seem disjointed or weird but this is what it's like for me to live with cPTSD, ADHD, and Lynch Syndrome (MSH6 gene defect).
I was diagnosed with cancer in August 2018
then
Lynch Syndrome (MSH6) on my birthday and essentially, assured cancer
would return
with 80% certainty before my 80th birthday (this news led to a mental breakdown). I decided to share my
journey
on how I don't handle my shit, it just looks like I have it all under
control. I refer to Lynch Syndrome as organ BINGO. My next cancer is
most likely to develop in my liver which is why it's on watch, next it
will be my lung (I have a small cyst on it). If not for my therapist,
you would not be reading this now.
