New update

So it has been a while since I last update. It has been a hacked months with learning about my new diagnosis and treatment plan. After surgery, I was inform that the tumor was indeed malignant (cancer) and not just that but a rare type of cancer call lymphoepithelial carcinoma of the parotid gland. I was devastated and I felt like my whole world was turn upside down. I was hoping that the tumor was benign and I can move on with my life after the surgery. However, to my dismay I was diagnosis with cancer. I would lie if I said that I took the news with great optimistic, but it was nothing like that. For the next couple of days while I was waiting for my oncology appointment for a follow up and to go over the next step in my treatment, I felt hopeless and defeated. I felt like crying as my diagnosis eats me little by little until I felt like I have no energy left in me. There were times in which I thought it would have been better if I was just dead and not have to go through this. But after meeting my oncologist, he set ease to my fear a little and gave me a glimpse of hopefulness that I would be ok. So treatment plan was external radiation therapy monday-friday for 4-6 weeks and then another hurdle i had to get through -- school. My biggest worries was to take time off of school and not being able to graduate with my cohort and friends that i had made along the way, however, I am hopeful that my school will work with my schedule and so that I don't have to take time off.
