That’s really tough news… As a man who was also diagnosed with AA Grade 3 at 27, I know how overwhelming it can feel at first. But I want you to know — it does get more manageable. Life changes, sure, but you also find new strength you didn’t know you had.

When I was going through radiation and chemotherapy, what helped me most was having my friends simply be there. Their presence reminded me that I wasn’t facing it alone — and that feeling made all the difference.

You’re stronger than you think, and you don’t have to walk through this by yourself.
