I had a conversation with a lady who fought and won her battle with Cancer, I referred to her as a ‘Cancer Survivor’ but she corrected me and said that she is a ‘Cancer Fighter’; she had never embraced the term “survivor” as for her it suggested that the illness was in control which it never was.
Rachel Platten’s Fight Song from the title album is a favourite on my playlist and one of those songs whose lyrics can be related to my journey with GBS & NHO and speak to and for me.
I am a GBS fighter, I will take back my life one day and nerve at a time…
*** I can not lose sight of what I am fighting for***
