 Is this real life? Is this really happening to me? I'm in my 20s and you're telling me I have cancer, you know. Did not instantly think, oh my God, I just had a son. I have a newborn baby and now I have cancer. No, no. I felt myself going deeper and deeper into depression as a whole. I stopped answering phone calls. I stopped answering texts. I shut everybody out until my phone didn't ring anymore. There were days I couldn't even walk. Even getting out of the bed. Sometimes I could barely lift my arm up. I couldn't open up jars, you know. I couldn't even hold my own son. That's like the worst thing ever for a mother to experience, not being able to hold your newborn baby and you're looking at him like right here, I'm sad because I can't hold him. I'm scared because I don't know if he's going to be able to see me when he's older because if I die. A recovery care coordinator who introduced me to the word games. Initially when he started telling me about all different sports, oh there's shooting, there's track, there's this. I'm thinking, no, no, no. These are all things I would never think to do in the first place. I'm not the athletic type. I'm not the sports person. Then I was like, you know what? This year I'm going to challenge myself. I'm going to stop saying no to all these things because one thing that cancer did teach me is that you never know when it's your last day. And then I'm here with all like-minded people. People are experiencing all different types of things, yet we're all still feeling the same emotions, same pains, the same struggles. We do. And it's just an instant connection and that's the beautiful thing about it. And that helped me tremendously just because of the fact that I brought people out of my life because of cancer. Being there is natural because you're there with people just like you. These people are pumping you up like you just- Michael Jordan up there, you know? Like, yeah, I'm good, you know? Yeah, I'm getting it, you know? They just- they give you so much motivation and so that helped it. That helped it. Everything on top of, you know, the social aspect, on top of the team playing aspect. Forgetting about your pain is the biggest part because each day, doing our normal lives, you think about all the time, their prescriptions, your this, or make it to this appointment. At that time, it's just about having fun. Look, enjoy where you are at this moment. And that's what I did.
