<div>Hi friends and family! I am very sad and not happy to be back on here giving yet another update on the progress of my cancer recovery. I thought I was done, but there was an incident. On September 8, 2025, I was diagnosed with a rare 1% form of cancer called Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma of the uterine cervix. This was stage 4 aggressive blood cancer, and I received 8 rounds of the most powerful chemotherapy and immunotherapy you could get. All of this annihilated me for 9 months. After treatment, I had to receive a full hysterectomy with the removal of my cancerous tumor that was attached to my cervix and bladder. This surgery, with the anesthesia, brought me to the hardest part of my recovery. I became nonverbal, unable to walk, move, cook, or drive for periods of time. I made it through all of that, and now I have to get an emergency surgery again.

<div><strong>Tomorrow, July 28, 2026, I have to go back into the hospital for a serious and invasive emergency surgery for my cervix and organs due to complications with my rare form of cancer and the damage the tumor and chemotherapy caused long-term.</strong> Essentially, I was diagnosed with a 1% rare disease and an unusual form of cancer. I had to have two oncologists, and neither had worked with a rare case like mine. With that said, the invasive tumor that attached to my bladder and cervix caused problems with my organs while it was active in my body, and now after it was removed. I had to have a complicated hysterectomy on top of the strongest chemotherapy, and this is now major surgery number 2 again. My surgeon/oncologist has to do an emergency surgery to repair what was done with the hysterectomy, tumor removal, and chemotherapy damage to my organs. He wasn't glad that I was back in the office either due to an unexpected incident. I will spare people the gory details. I have to go under anesthesia and get air in my belly for the laparoscopic surgery, which is really painful (like last time). My recovery should be about 4 weeks, and it really sets me back again. I am still playing catch-up from my last surgery and all that I went through with cancer. I am really, really over it. It has been about 1.5 years that I have been managing and dealing with the layers of recovery and the havoc that the tumor and blood cancer caused me. My next PET scan is Sept. 8 to make sure I am totally cancer-free. So I am still plugging away at all of this.

<div>I am doing everything to move on with my life. I am sad that I have to be suddenly thrust into extreme pain again after a year of pain and harrowing agony and exhaustion tbh. The anesthesia alone messed me up so, so much last time. I was very disabled... The amount I spend on having things delivered, and the endless supply of supplements I have to purchase to feel human again, feels endless.

<div>I have care and rides this time, but if friends want to throw down again or purchase art, that would be amazing. I worked very hard on my solo photographic art show, which is up at my gallery in Chicago. The murals look really nice if my friends or fans would like to collect my art. This also helps me. <a href="https://www.zggallery.com/gallery_information.htm" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><a href="http://www.zggallery.com/gallery_information.htm" target="_blank" class="" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">http://www.zggallery.com/gallery_information.htm</a></a>

<div>Or if anyone wants to acquire other prints directly from me, here is my catalog. I have prints made and framed and ready to ship as soon as I can walk again. People can DM me on Instagram or email me through my website. <a href="https://www.suzypoling.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><a href="https://www.suzypoling.com/" target="_blank" class="" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">https://www.suzypoling.com/</a></a>
