Sally Cronin from www.smorgasbordinvitation.wordpress.com is doing a wonderful series on Women’s Health and has graciously asked me to contribute one of my health issue stories to her series. Please take note that what happened to me certainly can apply to anyone, not just women.
“Welcome to the second post in the feature today and I am so pleased that author D.G. Kaye accepted my invitation to guest post. She shares her story about a health issue that could have gone unnoticed at great risk to her life.”
Connecting the Dots by D.G. Kaye.
It was the tiniest of dots; not much bigger than the size of a pinhead. Most people wouldn’t even have paid it any mind. But I am not most people.
As a girl who has experienced her fair share of health concerns, I made a pact with myself to practice a healthier lifestyle and to become more in-tuned with my body. I wouldn’t categorize myself as a hypochondriac, but because I have been challenged with cervical cancer, glaucoma, and a near fatal diagnosis of Crohn’s disease at the age of forty, my instincts instruct me to pay close attention to any suspicious “red flags” that capture my attention. . .

Always an inspiration Debby and a very powerful message that readers are still replying to on the blog.. What I need next is help in encouraging the men to talk about their health issues for a feature at the end of the month… help needed!! XX

Thanks again Sally for the opportunity to share my story. Perhaps if you don’t get enough men stepping up to the plate, I can offer you one about my husband’s prostrate cancer detection? xo

It would be welcome anyway Debby.. will let you know the dates.. My own father was diagnosed at 75 but unfortunately although the cancer was cured in those days it was the treatment which caused his death.. Radiation gave him leukemia. Thank goodness today with targeted radiation it is so much safer.. XXS

True Sal, thankfully it was safer, but still harsh on surrounding areas. 🙂
