🌀 Mood: Uncharted

I haven’t had a lot of time to process everything yet. Things are moving fast, and to be honest, I’m still trying to catch up—emotionally, mentally, and physically. But even in the midst of all that, one thing has become really clear to me:

I want this to be bigger than just me.

I want to help other people.
I want to raise awareness about a disease many have never heard of — Multiple Myeloma — and shed some light on what to look out for.
I want to encourage people to advocate for themselves, especially when something in your body feels off and the answers don’t come quickly.

This blog is one way I can do that. It’s also a way to keep my friends and family in the loop, to help you feel like you’re walking alongside me in this — because you are. I may not be able to update everyone individually, but here, you can know what’s going on and how I’m doing.

Right now, I would describe this season with one word: Uncharted.
I’m standing at the edge of something I didn’t see coming. I don’t know exactly what’s ahead. I don’t know how this will go.

But I do know I’m not going to walk it alone.

More to come.
