Lindy Avalos shares her powerful journey from becoming a new mom to being diagnosed with Stage 4 colon cancer at just 34 years old. Initially attributing her symptoms to pregnancy, Lindy never imagined her abdominal pain, blood in the stool, and other symptoms would be cancer. A routine MRI led to the shocking discovery of advanced adenocarcinoma that had metastasized to her liver, lungs, and lymph nodes.
In this emotional vlog, Lindy reflects on navigating motherhood alongside treatment, the challenges of chemotherapy, and the importance of trusting your instincts when something feels wrong. She offers hope, advice, and a candid look at life with a stage 4 diagnosis.
Thank you, Lindy, for sharing your story to help others.
