"Only the Silent Suffers" by Asja Godbolt

An excerpt from Asja's story:

"It’s funny how something so devastating is supposed to make you feel sad and give up, but little did breast cancer know I had already done the unthinkable. --the worst to me -- so this was just a cleansing process. Breast cancer literally cleared everything and everyone out my life that was not conducive for my health and growth. Needless to say, my life got silent again however, this time I heard two voices louder than ever before- Me and God. Everything I have ever wanted was inside me the whole time! The love, the support, protection, peace, joy, and all the magic has been silenced, and I have given myself permission to speak LOUDLY! You Night is confirmation that my God is in fact real. Just when my spirit was ready, God presented the stage and I received a phone call from the most kindest voice, Lisa McKenzie who offered this heavenly gift for me to share Me. I'm extremely grateful because I went through 27 rounds of chemo, 25 sessions of radiation, bilateral mastectomy, 56 appointments and counting, and reconstructive surgery physically just Me and God. I drove myself home each round of chemo, I drove myself each session, I rang the bells by myself but now I have a Sisterhood so big we need name tags and I’m tremendously grateful."
