Meet Bargains, a resilient individual who, two and a half years ago, received the devastating diagnosis of multiple myeloma, a form of blood cancer. This is the story of Bargains’ inspiring journey through the uncharted waters of cancer treatment, hope, and healing.
The Ominous Diagnosis
Two and a half years ago, Bargains’ life took an unexpected turn when the diagnosis of multiple myeloma was delivered. The news was a heavy weight, but Bargains’ courage shone through, illuminating a path toward recovery.
Endless Lab Visits
The journey began with relentless visits to the doctor and the lab, a monthly ritual filled with apprehension. Bargains’ urine and blood samples were scrutinized, and the results told a tale of perseverance. Protein levels, once alarmingly high, had steadily diminished.
The Unchanging Bone Marrow
Three bone marrow biopsies showed no significant change. Stability, in the realm of cancer, is a victory in itself. Though the paperwork was yet to confirm it, Bargains felt a glimmer of hope.
The Optimistic Oncologist
Bargains’ oncologist remained optimistic throughout the journey, offering no medication or treatment plans. It was a rare approach, but one that was proving to be effective. Starting treatment prematurely might not have allowed Bargains to stand where they do today.
The Prolonged Testing Periods
The oncologist’s strategy was to extend the intervals between testing. From monthly tests, it became bi-monthly, and now, a remarkable three months between check-ups. Bargains’ body seemed to be responding favorably to this unconventional approach.
An Inspiring Life
Bargains’ life was not defined by the shadow of cancer. At the age of 80, they continued to work tirelessly, managing an RV park, clocking in around 10 hours a day, and even taking care of maintenance tasks. Weekdays began at 6:30 AM, and Sundays, while now observed as a day of rest, showcased the unwavering spirit that refused to succumb to adversity.
Overcoming Arthritis
Arthritis had found its way into Bargains’ hands, but it had not managed to steal their functionality. Aches and pains were present, but they remained very functional, with no limitations to their range of motion.
Pursuing Passions
Bargains’ love for adventure was undeterred. Not only did they continue to ride a motorcycle, but their dreams also stretched to the skies. A pilot at heart, Bargains aspired to fly once more, when the opportunity arose.
The Ageless Warrior
At 80 years old, Bargains defied the stereotypes and statistics often associated with multiple myeloma. Their biological markers spoke of vitality, functionality, and resilience. With no need for glasses and acute hearing, they were living proof that age was just a number.
A Message of Hope
Bargains’ story is a testament to the power of hope, unconventional treatments, and the indomitable human spirit. It serves as an inspiration to all who face adversity, showing that even in the face of cancer, life can be lived to its fullest.
