Change is necessary, people will bring you down, stab you in the back, break your heart, want to see you fail… Get back up and do what your meant to do, people come and go.

. Lion kill. Photography by © (Mark Wiseman).I was able to complete a sequence of images of Ash?, dragging an eland carcass to a camelthorn tree in the Nossob River bed. I hope the image does not offend some people with sensitive dispositions, but these lions are predators and one can only really marvel at their strength and power. #Botswana #Dragging #Lion #Wildlife #Eland #Kalahari #Kgalagadi

Lions are at the top of the food chain, not us! We are not predators and are not meant to hunt and kill for our food so what's up meat and dairy industry?!?!

. ON THE MOVE Photography by © (Manoj Shah). I was having breakfast in the Mara when I noticed a herd of elephants walking towards me. Quickly I placed the remote camera down and drove off about 50 meters away. Luckily the elephants came near the camera and happily I started clicking the remote camera from the wireless transmitter. #african #loxodonta #masai #elephant #africana #mara

Welcome to Social Media Gail

So, I am not sure if it’s because I was away in Malawi, Africa for four years while Tumblr was becoming popular or if it’s simply because I am illiterate to anything and everything regarding the Internet but I am definitely way late and overdue for the Tumblr World. Better late than never, I guess! 

Here’s the thing, I am 27 years old and feel like I have been given decades of life experience that far surpass anything I thought I could handle. The most recent one being diagnosed with Non-Hodgkin B Cell Lymphoma in October of 2016. What the heck is that, right?!?!? 

I had no idea really until I met with an oncologist and life got real. Basically, it’s a cancer of the lymph nodes except for me (because I can’t do anything ordinary) it is in my uterus! Weird? Yes. Scary? Absolutely. Something that will knock me down? NO WAY. November 7, 2016 is when I decided that I was not going to let Lymphoma bring me down. It was not going to claim my life and I was certainly not going to let it be the reason for any more tears on my pillow. Six rounds of crazy intense chemotherapy drugs known as RCHOP in between 3 weeks of each other was all I was going to let Lymphoma have. I finished round 4 last week and have 2 more to go! WOO HOO!!! 

As I am reaching the end of cancer journey, I have realized that this is something that I need to share with the world. A cancer diagnosis does not have to be the end and it certainly does not mean you stop living. It may mean that your daily routine is on pause and it may mean that you have to nap more, but you can still laugh, enjoy time with your loved ones, and most importantly you can definitely still have ice cream (although I’m opting for nicecream these days). As I start putting my journey into words, I hope you can find some peace and comfort in my story no matter what you're struggling with and whatever may plague you because things do get better and trials and tribulations do pass. My life is a testament of that, I promise.
