Let me
tell you a little about me...
I have
been training and eating healthy for 15 years. Just when you think
everything is going just right you get a wake up call. I got mine
September 1st, 2009. I started to swell in my upper legs and groin
area and within two hours I was so big in my legs and knees I went
to the E.R.
|
Before
I was diagnosed |
There
they made me take a cat-scan and sent me home. By the next morning
I was so swollen I went back to the E.R. and the Doctor said..."
I don't know how to say this...(me being a Marine...I said "No
bullshit, what's wrong??")...You have a mass 2" around on
your kidney and your lymph nodes are swollen so bad." Then come
the Million Dollar Question......What do I do??!!
He told
me that I had 4 to 6 months to get my things in order. WOW!!
So I
went to a cancer facility and all of those Doctors said the same thing.
You know
that little two letter work "IF"? Well it has different
meaning for everyone but that day the meaning for me was life or death.
The Doctor
said that they could take out my kidney but "IF" the cancer
is in your lymph nodes we can't stop it!!
|
Well after
the 11" cut across my abs, one less kidney and 12 days in the hospital
the doctors told me the great news that my lymph nodes were clean. After
gaining 60 pounds of water weight and losing 40 pounds of muscle the
sent me home. The doctors tell me I have a clean bill of health and
I am able to get back in the gym.
|
Right
out of the hospital at 292lbs |
It took
me 3 months to get back in pretty good shape. My mid section is still
a little tender but I am back better than ever!!
So
don't sit there and tell me that you can't eat right and do your exercise!!
Just
get off your ass and join me in changing your life!!
Thanks
for reading my story.....I will NOT give up!!
Thanks - Mike |
