A Personal Status Update by The Black Scorpion about The Black Scorpion

Jud gave me the choice to do this on Sunday, but I did not want to talk about this at the time.

For several months now, I have secretly dealing with cancer. For those who follow me on Twitter (@bafendo), you might know this. Last Friday I had an operation to remove an enlarged testicle, that’s right it’s testicular cancer. That got most of it, but a little has spread to my abdomen and chest. So I’ll have to do more X-Rays and CT-Scans plus some other stuff.

Sometime around the end of August and September, I will start Chemo to treat/eliminate the cancer. Man I wish I had the doctor’s take a pic of it once they removed it, I could have grossed y’all out. LOL! But anyways, there’s nothing to worry about. Since I’m 25 and they caught it early enough, the chemo should eliminate what’s left. One bit of good news out of all this, is that I am not diabetic as I had feared! Hooray!

Oh and don’t worry about me posting stuff here on SimPrograms, nothing and I mean NOTHING can or will ever keep me away from a PC. lol So to all of our readers who are religious, please keep me in your prayers. For the not so religious, keep me in your thoughts. If you don’t, I’ll haunt you in your dreams! Muahahahahaa!!! BTW, that was a joke. The last part, not the stuff before it.

Thanks,

Bryce/The Black Scorpion/Bafendo

    You are really brave about this, because you seem so relaxed to talk about such a big thing as cancer. I know how it feels, I lost my grandfather because of cancer, but enough about me. I hope you get better each day!

    The Black Scorpion, I am sad to hear you have this battle you have been going through, stay strong and have lots of supports from your family and good friends that you have.
    I am wondering if you have heard of by eating raw food helps us to remove cancerous cells in our bodies? Please look up on this, it will change your situation and make your life better. Lots of raw vegans tells people their life changing experiences by turning into one. Changing for better – health, energy, happier, more compassionate towards everything 🙂

    Oh my! Well I’m glad things are looking optimistic, and we all definitely have you in our thoughts and prayers!

  49. Hannah Reply

    Hey, I’ve been reading your posts for so long and never really said hi, but I wish you all the best so you get well and healthy! My health has not been too good in the past year, although definitely not as serious as yours, but I wanted to tell you that good, proper, clean diet can do wonders, and I read even in cases like yours. Try to mix paleo lifestyle with raw foods and vegan diet. It may sound distasteful, but really good food can make you a much healthier person. Again, I wish you all my best! Be strong. Take care.

  50. Jessi Reply

    Sending tons of virtual support and love your way. You’re a great blogger so I’m sorry you’re going through that. Get well soon!!
