We Can Do Hard Things

Hi guys, Devlynn here. I’m a little scared to be filling this out, let alone to post this due to fear of judgement.

some of you know my story , some don’t. I was diagnosed with Stage 3 colon cancer back in September of 2023 when my colon ruptured. Not only did I wake to find that I had a 7cm tumor that was likely cancer but during the surgery a fast and hard decision had to be made to save my life and ended up with a full hysterectomy taking everything but one ovary.

There was hope that I had a 75% chance that after 8 rounds of chemo that I would beat this ugly disease. That didn’t happen for me.

After 5 rounds we did a PET scan and found that it had spread to my Lymphnodes in my esophagus, spine, pelvis, and abdomen. The doctor than deemed me Stage 4 with an average of 10 years.

I did another 4 rounds of chemo with another PET scan and found it had spread some more. This time to my Liver. At that time I became stage 4 with an average of 2 years.

did another 4 rounds of chemo with another PET scan at the end and found it had spread yet again to my vaginal wall.

Back to chemo we go, in the process of doing my next 4 rounds before the PET scan we come to find out that my ALT and ALP levels are skyrocket and was told that the likelihood that it’s spread more or gotten worse are a real possibility. I was given 6-9 months if I’m lucky to remain here.

I know a lot of people have asked me I had a Go-Fund me and previous ones have been removed because of backlash I’ve received.

Id love the opportunity to do things I haven’t yet in life. As a Cancer patient things have been hard not being able to work and a struggle to even have the ability to do the little things. I rely on a lot of people for help with rides and time.

i don’t know how to write this, I’m not good at being super vulnerable about this. I guess what I’m trying to say is I’d love to make the best memories and moments I can with friends to leave them with some of the best last memories I can.

id love to be able to possibly travel and see things I never thought I’d have the chance too.

A Stay in the mountains to recharge

a weekend with my best friends exploring a city and making memories.

camping this summer and being in nature.

just a few things to make the best memories with people who’ve been there and helped me.

The ability to get places without always having to rely on others.

im not good at this and I apologize for that.

please don’t feel obligated to donate if you can’t, even just a prayer or kind words truly do mean a lot.

thank you for taking the time to read this I appreciate all you.
