Stronger This word was stuck in my mind when I beat cancer. Back then, I thought that I had won a very difficult battle and that nothing could bring me down. I used to think that "there's nothing that can happen that would be more terrifying". I was wrong, though. Challenges and difficulties kept coming along. My boyfriend's father died unexpectedly, the pamdemic came and at the same time I was dealing with PTSD during quarantine. At this point I realized that the cancer was just the beginning. I couldn't handle everything on my own, so I started therapy. It is the most precious and painful gift I have ever given myself. I realized then, that every battle we win we become stronger. I know I raise stronger every time I get a cancer-free diagnosis, every time I survive a panick attack, an insult, a heartbreak, a betrayal, an underestimation. Whatever your story is, own it, be proud of it. This story makes you stronger. This story makes you, you. Thank you for this safe space created here ✨🙏🏻 Love you all ❤️
