Yes, living with a chronic health condition can be stressful.

Yes
The reality is we have a cancer that is incurable at this time and we have to figure out a way to live and be healthy with the future in chaos.

want to share a little update about my journey. Recently I went for a CT scan of my lungs, and today the doctor explained the results to me.

Because of these changes, the doctors want to do another test called a bronchoscopy, where they use a small camera to look inside the airways and take samples to understand it better.
