Testicular Cancer and the battle to stay on top!

<p>After learning that I had testicular cancer my views on life changed tremendously. I always try to eat healthy cutting out anything that will enhance my cancer. I exercise as much as possible trying to keep my endurance and immune system up. I do as much as I can on my own knowing that I can't afford to get the treatments that I need.&nbsp;</p> <p>These past 8 months has most definitely been the hardest times of my life. Doctor visit after doctor visit. Lab tests after lab tests and all I can see is medical bills stacking up in front of me. I knew something had to be done, and fast.&nbsp;</p> <p>I currently work at Gompers Habilitation Center where I work with adults with multiple disabilities. I'll be going on 5 years there and it's certainly a field that I really enjoy working in. Helping those in need has become a major part of my life and I try to portray that in everything I do. I picked up a second PT job where i work as a caregiver for Straughn Health Care. Making the choice to get a second job has been very helpful for me financially but at the same time it's taking a lot out of me. I appreciate the little sleep i get now. I enjoy what I do with my jobs and I get nothing but pure joy knowing that in some little way I make somebodys day easier.&nbsp;</p> <p>On my free time I enjoy spending time&nbsp;with family and friends. However Lately this time has been consumed with phone calls and applications trying to find the help I need. Researching my condition and trying to find little things that can help in my favor. Im overwhelmed with all the paperwork, phone calls and website that I feel my body physically slowing down. &nbsp;</p> <p>My friends and family have been a great support system through all of this. I know I can go to them when I just need to get away from the stresses of my life. &nbsp;</p> <p>I hope that with this campaign page I will get the help I need and that I won't have to stress anymore about this. I would like to be able to focus mainly on staying as healthy as possible cause I know that's the only way I can beat this. &nbsp;I'm a fighter and I will win!</p> <p>Thank you! &nbsp;</p>
