Colon cancer symptoms and why I dismissed mine at first

- Excuse the redundancies, I still haven't taken the time to edit. Just some of the symptoms I experienced before being diagnosed with stage 3 Colon Cancer. Please don't take any of my story as advice or a means to self-diagnose. If you are concerned about a health issue, please see a licensed professional if you can.
Thank you for taking the time and effort to make this video. Can't be easy when you're still recovering from cancer. Your explanation of the symptoms during the run-up to your diagnosis will help countless people over time. I hope and pray that you've won your war against this terrible illness for good, and live a long, fruitful, and healthy life. Thank you!
Thank you for the kind words and taking time to comment! I am currently 12 months cancer free and have gotten back into the work force and am doing my best to stay healthy. If my video helps just one person , I can feel I've accomplished some good. I hope to share some more of my story soon. Much love and abundance to you and yours as well!
Thank you.
Awesome video.So glad you are doing well.
Everyone's symptoms are different it's good that you watch different videos. On my videos I went through the whole process. Dr Dan says just passed away last week, his were different too. He had stage 4 and lasted 4 years. Stay away from anything acidic, wine, etc. watch his last transmission wearing a white T-shirt. He was a great person. Yesterday he's family had his memorial. Sad.
I am so glad you shared this,my husband has been having similar issues. I am going to make sure he gets it checked out. Thankyou
Thank you for commenting, and I'm very glad you found it helpful. My thoughts, prayers, and well wishes are with you and your husband. I hope it's nothing too serious, but time is certainly of the essence. Much love🙏
God bless you! Anyone that takes care of their parents during their last days is honorable! Prayers for you!
Sending love and hugs to you Paul xx take care ❤
I just found you on RUclips Paul. An excellent update and history of your cancer. Hopefully people will see it and respond to their health issues.
Thank you for your encouragement James, I really do appreciate it. I sincerely hope it helps people, and comments like yours inspire me to share more of my story. Much love and Aloha to you and yours!
I’m experiencing some of those symptoms. I’m scared. My brother has stage 4 rectal cancer as I write. Glad your healing 💕 I’m uninsured😢
I'm sorry your brother is going through that and also for your situation. Here in Hawaii there is a program called MedQuest, that I applied for and was able to obtain free insurance through the state . Its basically Medicaid and I think due to my age and the fact I was unemployed at the time, I qualified. I dont know where you are located but it certainly wouldn't hurt to look into any programs that may be available to you. Believe me, I understand your predicament, I didnt have insurance for years since I was self employed, and was the main reason I didnt get checked out sooner. My thoughts and hopes are with you that you may get some help and move forward with some treatment.
@@paulonmaui382 thank you for taking the time to comment. We lost our ins when ACA was passed. We are not poor enough for govt help and not rich enough for reg ins. We will figure it out, hopefully. Take care of yourself 🙏
Were you getting your cheeks clapped?
Your explanations will help many people
Thank you for your comment, it is certainly my hope that some may seek help if experiencing any of these, or other, issues. Much love to you and yours🙏
Thank You, dear man. Wishing you well. 💖🙏
Thanks for posting this, very informative and no doubt your story will help others to recognise the symptoms early enough.
Glad you’ve pulled through and you’re getting back to work, that’s also quite reassuring to anyone going through this! ❤
Thank you, I appreciate your comment. I'm glad if it helped you or anyone else to investigate any issues and to take steps to better their health. It's only been in the last week that I've had any comments since posting this video so I'm happy that it may be of service and benefit someone. I hope that you are not experiencing any issues yourself, but if so, please stay positive, for that is the first step in the fight. Much love to you and yours!
I wish I researched all of this last year. All of the symptoms you are telling us, is exactly my symptoms. Im 40. My doctors have told me im too young for colon cancer so I believed them. Until I started seeing these videos...dude, ive lost 35 pounds since last Sept and most of that is the past 4 months. My doctors still dont listen so last week, i sought out my own gastroenologist and he saw me yesterday and agreed I need a colonoscopy asap. I am paying for it myself since the VA cant do it until End of August. I cant wait that long. I pay $2500 and can have it done Tuessay also that includes endoscopy. My doctors are failing me. But seriously, everything you said to a T is what im currently going through the past 3 years. Thank you for sharing!
I'm sorry to hear you are going through this brother. Your doctors were wrong for saying you're too young if you're having these symptoms, and should have ordered a colonoscopy for you. It's the food we eat, and I suggest at the very least to start eating healthier. Cut out sugars for sure, soda, fast foods, packaged meals etc. You gotta do your own research, and pay attention to everything you eat. Stay positive and I hope the colonoscopy gives you some answers soon. My prayers and thoughts are with you🙏
@@paulonmaui382 bro Paulo what's your diet?
Love the art behind you. Thank you for sharing your story. I have my colonoscopy I am on a yearly colonoscopy. 😢.
I'm sorry you have to go through that regularly. You must be dealing with something serious, my thoughts and prayers are with you. The paintings are oils done by my late Mother back in the late 70's
It's familiar as well, if you have polyps make sure to let your siblings know
My husband was just diagnosed. He’s the I’m fine type always. Now we have a stage 3B cancer. Thank you for sharing as the group of elderly is now very young who are not getting the attention they need until too late. Bless and prayers for a recovery. My husband’s mother was also very ill and passed away during this time which we contributed the symptoms to. Anemia is almost classic in colon cancer. Colonoscopies should be done at least every 5 years especially if risk factors are present.
I'm so sorry about your Husband's diagnosis, but if it's any consolation, I am proof that that it's possible to overcome this and still have a life to look forward to. It has to start with a belief that he will beat the cancer as well as a desire and commitment to lifestyle and dietary changes that will help keep the cancer from coming back once he has defeated it. Stress and worry will not help in the least, so work at staying positive, lean on your faith and prayers, if you are so inclined. Also, don't rely on your doctor for everything, do your own research. Everyone is built differently and nobody knows you better than yourself and look to what you eat as the first step in getting better. Nature provides us with everything our bodies need and is always better than man made. Much love and luck to you and yours.
Thank you very much for your honesty. Extremely informative! I’m making an appointment for both my husband and me.
Thank you so much for commenting and I'm very happy to have encouraged you to get checked on. I hope whatever you and your husband are dealing with isn't serious and wish you both the best of health. Much love, positivity, and prayers!
Sorry about your situation. My brother was diagnosed with stage 4 colon cancer at the age of 49. He passed away when he was 52.
I'm so sorry about your brother. Not to worry about me though, I just made 15 months cancer free. I've been meaning to do an update video and some other related topics but other areas of life are taking precedence at the moment. Thank you for your commentand much love to you and yours🙏♥️
@@paulonmaui382 wonderful news! I'm happy for you ❤️
@@paulonmaui382hoping you are 19 months NED 🤞🤞🤞
@@paulonmaui382it's been over 2 years for me since I was diagnosed with stage 3 colon cancer as well. Every 3 to 6 months is suspense waiting to see if it's still in remission.
Thank you for making your videos. I’ve been r having stomach issues for almost two years. CT scan normal though I have gallstones. Been trying to get a colonoscopy but it’s taking over 3 months because of insurance issues. Have constipation bloating and intermittent diarrhea. Work long hours and have very stressful job. Don’t eat right and don’t drink enough water.
I'm sorry to hear of your health issues and definitely encourage you to press forward and get that colonoscopy. Stress is so bad for us, I hope you can find a way to decompress when not at work. I would encourage some sort of meditation or breathing exercises to help calm yourself. look that up here on RUclips and see what might work for you. Worrying about anything can be so difficult but I would suggest to NOT worry about things too much until you find out what you are dealing with. Look at it like, if it is something serious like cancer, whatever it is that is causing these issues, it is what it is, and the only thing left to do is figure it out and take the necessary steps to overcome it. The doctors will only help you so much, the bulk of the healing will come from within you and starts with doing your own research and changing your diet and being aware of what you eat, or not eating enough of. Don't let life dictate circumstances to you, you must take control of your own situation. You can do it! Stay strong and be positive. Very first step......stop eating sugar. It weakens us and creates havoc with our moods. Much love and prayers for you and yours!
Try gas x and a Probiotic.
I appreciate your input , helps to hear someone else going through it easy listening .Thank you
Thank you Paul for commenting and I hope you are getting through your battle. Stay positive and have belief you will get past this. I hope to post more content in an attempt to lend moral support to anyone who may be dealing with such challenges. Much love and Aloha to you and yours. Stay strong🙏💪
I didn't lose any weight at all ,nor did I have any bleeding I just felt tired.
I thought I had a virus and didn't listen to my wife when she told me to go to the doctor.
Fortunately I did listen and eventually went to the doctor .
Blood test proved I had very little red blood cells due to bleeding which didn't show in the toilet at all.
Next day in hospital for a blood transfusion and vitamin b infusion .Scan and then a colonoscopy.
I had a stage 3 C tumor in my right side colon and required a right hemicolectomy and 6 months of chemo .
Just completed my first year tests and all is well.
Pray good health follows you
Been there done that moving on five years C free ….I had submitted 2 of those screening test five years apart and they both came back negative. I was tired , lost weight , irregular bowel movements . Constipation for around three weeks before being diagnosed was in agony with stomach cramps just before my op ….then chemo …whoosh , happy to be alive , take care Xxx
I'm glad to see you are still clear, thank you for commenting. It's important that people see there is hope of getting better and staying better. When I initially was marked for surgery, the surgeon said we were just hoping to buy me a couple more years of life, not very positive or encouraging, and pretty insensitive I thought. Inside my head I laughed it off and said "F that" I've got shit to do still. A positive attitude is essential to get one through something like this. Much love and a continued cancer free life to you and yours🙏❤
Thank you so much....my mom died of Colon Cancer at 86 after 5 difficult years..I am experiencing the issues she went through for past 4 years but am terrified to have the invasive test. I am trying to be brave enough to get in soon. Blessings to you Paul!
I'm so sorry for your loss, and I hope you find the strength to get checked on yourself. Time is of the essence and the sooner you know the better. There is no benefit in not knowing, and the stress of NOT knowing is worse than the possibility of cancer itself. I don't know what invasive test you are facing but if it helps to know, I just had a needle biopsy of a new lump in my belly that was discovered during my last CT scan. It is likely just a cyst that has developed by the scar tissue from my original surgery however the biopsy is just to make sure the cancer isn't returning. A needle biopsy is considered invasive because they stick a large needle in the lump and extract tissue, however, a small shot to numb the area beforehand makes the whole process very easy and painless. You may also want to inquire about a PET scan (I believe that is what it is called) which is similar to a CT scan and isn't invasive at all, and apparently very revealing. I'm not sure what you are dealing with yourself but I can't encourage you enough to get checked out sooner rather than later. I wish you the best and my prayers and thoughts are with you. Much love and hope to you.
My surgeon suggested the PT scan to me but that would have required me to fly to another island (I live on Maui, and we dont have that equipment available here) and I didn't want to spend the time and money. It was quicker and more convenient to do the needle biopsy
Thank you for letting us know how you're doing sending prayers and love ❤️❤️🙏🙏
Thank you Marcella, I appreciate your sentiments. Much love and Aloha to you as well🙏

Thanx so much for explaining this cancer and taking time to do this not feeling well at the time and i hope you are well now
Thank you for your comment, and I'm glad if you found it informative. I am doing much better now and getting back to life again. I hope that you aren't dealing with similar issues and much love!
Bloating and thin stools. Also Dark blood can be from a tumor in the upper colon. My mom had that
Beets and red veggies can cause cherry colored stool.
Yes, that is my understanding as well, although I never experienced the dark blood in m y stool. I believe that is usually an indication of internal bleeding somewhere in the digestive tract. The bleeding I experienced was mainly near the rectum and due to my Hemorrhoid, however the stool issues could probably be attributed to the blockage in my colon and the cancer disrupting proper function. Not everyone will have the same symptoms I suppose, these were just my experiences. As far as the Beets and red veggies, I read somewhere that about 18% of people will have that coloration issue with their stool and possibly their urine too. It is in of itself not to be something of concern. Thank you for your comment, I appreciate your input. Much love🙏
I had cancer in my small intestine and colon. They removed a long strip of my intestines and pulled the ends together and stitched them together. I didn't need a colostomy bag. They got all the cancer. I was so lucky.
Facing this now...how was your healing process?
@@nonarcsense it didn't take long to heal up. They did robot surgery. And I feel just as good as I did before cancer. I do still have diarrhea but that's because I had my gallbladder removed and the free flowing bike causes that. They have stuff you can take for that. I also have Crohn's but I've been going carnivore and I see a lot of my symptoms fading away. Especially my psoriasis. It's been amazing how I cleared up.
@@cynthiaweathers6979 thank you...much success on your recovery ! 🙏
My initial surgery sounds similar to yours; I didn't have the colostomy bag at first, but had some complications with an infection, so I went back into surgery a few days later to remove more of my colon. I still have the bare minimum left so I am a possible candidate for reversal but finances and time off for recovery doesn't seem possible right now.
@@paulonmaui382 you know our guts were pulled out of their original resting place and had to be tacked down in their new locations. One thing I had to do when I got home was wearing a loose girdle to support things as I moved about and avoid running. Which I found kind of funny because I can't run anymore, anyways. Lol. I guess they were worried id get in a treadmill. It just hit me funny.
Prayers
Thank you and much love!
Prayers 🙏
Thanks for sharing your journey. How are you doing now? Praying that you are doing well
Thank you for your comment. I am doing well and just made 15 months cancer free, so I am grateful and continue to work hard at eating well to stay healthy. I hope to post some new videos soon updating and detailing my story a little further in hopes that it may encourage some that may be going through a similar situation. Much love and hope to you and yours!
What’s weird is that I had diarrhea for a month with thin stools off and on . Then all of a sudden my stools what’s normal again big and round . I took a fecal test and it was negative. Super weird
IDK, I'm not a doctor but you may have just had some minor blockage or build up in your colon that eventually broke up and passed through? That in of itself, I'm sure is common and not a reason for concern. If problems persist or reoccur, from what I've researched, a colonoscopy seems to be the way most people find out for sure if there is any issues. It's a way of providing an actual visual look at what's inside your colon.
I would say if you see or feel anything unusual get it checked
Please don’t think that this mostly happens to older people. I see so many 20-30 year old men who are absolutely shocked that they are diagnosed with cancer and because they put off being checked out their cancer was advanced.
I am 56 and put my mild symptoms down to diet but luckily I received a screening kit in the post from the nhs in the uk and my cancer journey began. My advice, try hard to keep a positive attitude, don’t Google or look too far ahead of each stage of your journey as you will end up worrying about things that are not part of your pathway and talking is good. The treatment I am getting is excellent and every step is explained thoroughly and then the decisions are mine to make. Plenty of help mentally is on offer too.
I agree, staying positive and not overthinking about other people's experiences is very important. All our individual experiences are unique and require us to be diligent and honest with ourselves. I also was very surprised at how many much younger people are experiencing cancer and other digestive tract diseases, however it makes sense with all the processed and crap foods we are being sold. Please stay strong and Thank you for your comments. Much love and my thoughts are with you🙏
Hi Paul, how are you doing now? You got this. I’m believing you can live a long time more. Keep up your healthy diet. Can I ask if you stopped the beer? I hope so. Sending big hugs and hope…xxx
Thank you, I appreciate the comment and concern, I am doing well, eating healthy and almost 1 1/2 years cancer free. I have been dealing with an abscess in the scar tissue from my colon surgery and will be having minor surgery hopefully soon, to clean that up. More of a nuisance than anything. I do still occasionally have a beer or two once or twice a month but not like I used to. Much love and blessings to you and yours🙏
@@paulonmaui382 I’m so very please to hear how you’re doing. Smiling big! Enjoy the days and moments and I’ll look forward to your positive updates!
@@paulonmaui382🤝
How are you doing? Hope you’re doing well. ❤
....and I'm doing well. Grateful to wake up everyday with another chance to get better at who I am. It's not always easy but I definitely like being healthy, rather than ill.
Aloha @Paulonmaui. Jocelyne from O’ahu here. Battling NSCLC. Hope you’re doing well!
Aloha Jocelyne, I'm sorry to learn of your situation, I had to look it up. I sincerely hope you are staying positive and doing well with treatments. I wish you strength, comfort, and healing through this difficult journey. Don't give up! Believing is crucial! Much love and prayers!
@@paulonmaui382 mahalo Paul. I’m an island girl, I will never give up. I’m actually doing quite well, considering. We are hitting it hard, I’m doing 2 chemo treatments along with immunotherapy every 3 weeks. I’m very fortunate and having minimal side effects from treatment. The worst of it being fatigue and some neuropathy in my fingertips and toes. My latest scan the tumor is down a little over 30%. Plan on kicking this thing’s a$$ 😉
Thanks for the story. How was the chemo?
Overall, the chemo wasn't too bad for me personally, but I was a lifelong heavy cannabis user, and I feel it was a big reason I didn't experience a lot of the nausea as bad as many do. there was some neuropathy that developed in my hands and feet but has since gone away. I've been meaning to do more videos about the surgery and subsequent recovery and chemo, hopefully soon. Thanks for commenting and Much love and good health to you🙏
thanks for sharing your story.. I wish you all the best ..
not experienced visible bleeding.as you.. I will test for occult blood tomorrow before my scheduled phonecall from doctor.
I have had a constant bloating, gas, and weird looking stool for three weeks. Sometimes stool coming out looking "ok" but soft in the beginning and then followed by softer "borderline" diarre. (not always though).. but can't remenber when I last had a nice looking stool. My bowel emptying is though like clockwork... every morning i need to go..
And the last three days a slight back pain..
I have had more diarre the last 10 months than before... lost a little weight.(. hemoglobin looks good, had my blood checked 2 weeks ago). but they did not check for other cancer "markers". (Albumin should be checked).
Stool has been constantly soft,, and now when you describe it, i do feel it looks like a lille mucus is present in the stool..
I have not had major fatigue yet.. which correlates with good blood value..
30 pounds is 14kg in. year.. how many percent did that correspond to.. it seems like a lot. Definately a red flag unless you did something drastic with you eating habits an exercise regime.
I have lost 7 pounds in 6 months without trying.. in a year I have gone down from 34" semen to 32" semen..
Doctor is updated ,,, earlier work 14 years ago puts me at risk (radioactivity towards to gut)..
A small loss of weight without trying,, I have documented the shape and size of stool.,, (presence of mucus) , will do a FOBT test on the stool tomorrow, tell about an incident more than a year ago where i felt a sharp pain in the right side of the colon near the appendix or above it.. this pain went away within a day.. did not think more of it..
again thanks for sharing.. wish you the best.
Thank you for your commenting and i hope you get some answers and are able to find your way to better health. It is hard to say what was really going on with my body in regard to my weight loss. I was under a lot of stress taking care of my mother at the time and was not eating well and was quite depressed as well. I didn't have insurance at the time so I tried not to think about it and was just trying to get through life one day at a time. It is easy to say now that I should have gone to a doctor sooner but at the time it really wasn't an option. If you have the means, it is always a good idea to get the advice of a professional, then do as much research as you can. You know yourself and how you eat and live better than any doctor so you must be honest with yourself and give your doctor as much information as you can to help them help you. Best of luck, much love and prayers to you and yours.🙏
Great video!❤
Thank you for this amazing video! Question.......what side was your colon cancer located? God bless my friend ❤
I'm not really sure which side, it was very close to my rectum, and I had several inches of large intestine removed and now live with a colostomy bag. It was stage 3 but surgery and 5 months of chemo helped. Thank you for commenting and blessings and much love to you🙏
Hemorrhoids bleeding
Constipation
Diarrhea often

Hi Paul,
I live in South Africa. The sun is always shining here and there is always the risk of developing skin cancer if you have a light skin. I developed a growth on the lower eye lid of my right eye. I do not know if it is cancer or just a benign growth but I went on a high nutrition diet for about two months and the growth have shrunk noticeably.
I would like to share the diet with you.
The soup
Ingredients: - two handfuls of Chopped broccoli, one chopped onion (purple), two bags of green tea, two pinches of mixed herbs, two sticks of cut celery, Two handfuls of frozen and crushed spinach or kale, half a table spoon of crushed garlic, Three shakes of black pepper, seven shakes of turmeric, two tablespoons full of apple cider vinegar (with the mother), one bag of white onion powder soup for flavour, a hand full of cooked red speckled beans and a handful of cooked mince meat.
Just add all the ingredients in a pot, add boiling water and switch the stove on high till the water boils. Then lower the heat until the water simmer, Let the soup simmer for an hour. The soup is now ready.
I would only drink water in the morning. At 12h00 I would start eating the soup. There will be about two helpings that you can eat in the 12h00 to 18h00 time frame. I also ate a fruit salad every day in the 12h00 to 18h00 time frame.
(Note: Apparently turmeric reduces the effect of some chemotherapy drugs and thus should not be taken during chemotherapy.)
During the rest of the week I would also eat food that contains vitamin D like avocado’s, mushrooms, liver and eggs in the 12h00 to 18h00 time frame.
It seems to be working for me, maybe it will also work for you.
I pray to God the Father in the name of Jesus Christ that you will be healed. Amen.
I would also like to share the following five videos with you about salvation and two videos about evolution:

Thank you for your comments and prayers. I have made many dietary changes since my treatment and have also leaned heavily on faith to help get me through to this point. health and spirituality are an ongoing component to my daily life and are things I work at and remain grateful for. Much love and blessings to you and yours.🙏
Look up Thomas seyfried about cancer. Cancer needs glucose or glutamine to reproduce. Stopping intake of them is key to beating this.
Thank you for your comment. Yes I have cut back my carbohydrate intake considerably. Prior to Cancer, I had been dealing with depression and as a last ditch effort to avoid medication, I started eating healthier and cut out processed sugars (all soda's, flavored waters, candies, snacks, etc.) and fast foods, and was able to pull myself out of years of miserable mood swings. The only sugar I knowingly consume is organic honey and fresh fruits, which I don't eat too much of either. I stick with meat proteins and vegetables mostly and carbs, like pasta or bread, only as my occasional cheat meals. Sugar wreaks havoc on our bodies. It's absolutely terrible for us, and yes, Cancer feeds off it.
Hi how long after colonoscopy did it take for them to confirm it was cancer? They found a mass and im waiting for biopsy result now. Prayers for you and your health 🙏🏼 ❤️
I didn't have a biopsy for a little while actually. The initial colonoscopy revealed a major blockage in my large intestine and I was admitted to the hospital for emergency surgery to remove it the following week. Upon removal of that portion of colon, the samples were sent to the mainland (I am in Hawaii) and were determined to be cancerous a couple weeks later. I had stage 3 which means it had started to spread through the intestine walls into surrounding tissue. I hope your results are benign, and I suggest trying to not worry about it until you find out the results. The stress does not help so there's no point worrying until you know for sure. Prayers, good wishes, and much love to you and yours.
Food is a big contributor to colon cancer. Eat whole foods not processed food. Did you have any stomach issues before the diagnosis?
I'm guessing food is the main contributor, and yes, processed foods and sugars are terrible for us. I never experienced pains but loose stool and diarrhea/constipation were issues for years.
I think food is mucked about too much these days
How are you doing? I have stage 3 in remission.
Ive been doing good, I think. I've had some delays with my recent 18 month CT scan but I finally had it a couple weeks ago and will find out the results tomorrow. I imagine if there were any problems I would have heard by now. Thanks for asking and I wish you continued remission and health🙏
did you find at all that some days your poop had that noodle look and other days seemed normal? I am having variety so am confused by lack of constancy
It is hard to say, it has been a while and my bowel movements were loose for quite some time prior to my surgery and diagnosis. maybe you are experiencing swelling and inflammation on some days and not on others? In any case it certainly doesn't hurt to see a doctor if you are concerned and have the means. Do as much research online as you can, pay attention to what you have eaten on days when you have problems and learn about those foods. A doctor will only be able to tell you so much from a blood test and examination and will rely on you to be as honest and helpful as you can be. I hope you get checked out and I wish you the best of luck. Stay positive and proactive, and eat healthy and clean foods. Eliminate sugars and processed foods as much as you possibly can. Much love and prayers to you and yours🙏
Didn’t know I would ever hear colon cancer prevention from Keanu on RUclips.
I kid. I’m sure you have gotten that from others before, the resemblance to Keanu, that is. Hope many more healthy years for you.
😄Actually I've never heard that, but thanks........I think?😉
Colitis can cause mucous
I am not familiar with symptoms of colitis but mucous is ever-present in our digestive tract and is what facilitates the movement of stool through our intestines, it just shouldn't be visually noticeable in our bowel movements. Definite red flag.
Turn to Jesus He loves you, He is the healer of the body And savior of the soul, There is True Hope in Jesus, God protects Psalms 91, He is the God of miracles Acts 2:21 And everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved Jesus alone saves Trust Him with your salvation John 3:16
1 Corinthians 15 1-4
Moreover Brethren, i declare unto you the gospel which i preached unto you, which also ye have received, and with wherein ye stand
By which also ye are saved, if you keep in memory what i preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain,
For i delivered unto you first of all that which i also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures
And that He was buried, and that He rose again the third day according to the scriptures, Take care
Thank you. My own spiritual practice and beliefs have been integral in helping me get through this, and life in general. Having faith in that which we cannot see, but certainly can feel, gives me hope and strength during these very chaotic and disillusioned times. Much love to you and yours.
