Kubantu abaphila neRCC, ungaze unikezele

Bahlobo abathandekayo,

Kwiminyaka emihlanu edlulileyo, ndandiphila ubomi obuxakekileyo njengomyili wefashoni kwishishini lam. Yonke loo nto yatshintsha ngobunye ubusuku xa ngequbuliso ndadilika ngenxa yeentlungu ezisemqolo ndaza ndopha kakhulu. Ndandineminyaka engama-45 ubudala.

Ndasiwa esibhedlele apho i-CAT scan yaveza ithumba elikhulu kwizintso zam zasekhohlo. Ndine-renal cell carcinoma. Ukuxilongwa komhlaza kwenzeka ngesiquphe kwaye kungalindelekanga kwaphela. Bendingaphilanga.

Ndandihleli ndedwa kwisibhedlele xa ndandiqala ukuva lonto igama. Ugqirha wathi, “Kuzakufuneka utyando ukuze ususe umhlaza.”

Ndothuke kakhulu. Kuya kufuneka ndixelele ezi ndaba kusapho lwam. Uyichaza njani into ebuhlungu kangangokuba ungaziqondi? Kwakunzima kum ukwamkela kwaye nosapho lwam ukuba luyamkele.

Nje ukuba ukopha kulawulwe, ndathunyelwa ukuba ndenziwe utyando ukuze kususwe izintso nethumba. Utyando lwaphumelela, kwaye ithumba lalikhona. Nangona kunjalo, ndashiyeka ndihlala ndiqaqanjelwa ngumqolo.

Kule minyaka mibini izayo, kuye kwafuneka ndivavanywe amathambo, iskena seMRI, kunye novavanyo lweCAT oluqhelekileyo. Ekugqibeleni, kwafunyaniswa ukuba ndinomonakalo wemithambo-luvo ndaza ndanikwa iipilisi zeentlungu ngokungenammiselo.

Umhlaza wabuphazamisa ubomi bam ngesiquphe kangangokuba ndakufumanisa kunzima ukuqhubeka njengesiqhelo. Ishishini lefashoni labonakala liphezulu xa ndibuyela emsebenzini, ndiye ndavala ishishini lam ndathengisa ngayo yonke impahla. Ndifuna into eyahluke ngokupheleleyo.

Isiqhelo esitsha sithathe indawo. Kwafuneka ndithathe usuku ngalunye njengoko lwalusiza. Njengoko ixesha lihamba, ndaya ndiziva ndikhululekile; ngaphandle kwexesha elibekiweyo, ubomi bam baba lula. Ndizixabisile ngakumbi izinto ezincinci.

Ndaqala ukugcina incwadi yamanqaku mhla ndafunyaniswa ndinesi sifo. Emva kwexesha, ndayigqithisela kwibhlog- {textend} Umhlaza ongalunganga. Ndothukile, ibhlog yaqala ukufumana ingqwalaselo enkulu, kwaye ndacelwa ukuba ndibeke ibali lam kwifomathi yencwadi. Ndijoyine neqela lokubhala. Ukubhala yayingumdla wam wobuntwana.

Enye into endandiyithanda yayiyimbaleki. Ndiqale ukuya kwiklasi yeyoga yendawo njengoko imithambo ibifana ne-physiotherapy, eyayicetyiswa ngugqirha wam. Xa ndakwaziyo, ndaqala kwakhona ukubaleka. Ndakha imigama, ngoku ndibaleka kathathu ngeveki. Sele ndiza kuqhuba umdyarho wam wokuqala wemarathon kwaye ndiza kuqhuba umdyarho opheleleyo ngo-2018 ukuphawula iminyaka emihlanu ukususela kwi-nephrectomy yam.

Umhlaza wezintso wayiphelisa indlela yokuphila endandiyiqhelile kwaye ushiye uphawu olungacimiyo kwindlela endiphila ngayo ngoku. Nangona kunjalo, indlela yam yokuba sempilweni ivule iingcango ezintsha, ezikhokelele kwimiceli mngeni emininzi.

Ndiyathemba ukuba ekufundeni le leta, abanye abaphila ne-renal cell carcinoma banokubona ukuba umhlaza ungasusa kude kuthi, kodwa umsantsa ungagcwaliswa ngeendlela ezininzi. Ungaze unikezele.

Ngalo lonke unyango olukhoyo ngaphandle, singanikwa ixesha elingaphezulu. Inkqubo yokubuyisela yandinika ixesha elininzi, kunye nembono entsha ngobomi. Ngeli xesha kunye nembono entsha, nditshise inkanuko endala ndaza ndafumana ezintsha, nazo.

Kwaye, umhlaza wawungesiyo isiphelo, kodwa yayisiqalo sento entsha. Ndizama ukonwabela umzuzu ngamnye wohambo.

Uthando,

Debbie
