  • I have received so much love and support from everyone on here, that I wanted to take the tine and tell you all exactly what my journey has entailed. I don't have memory of some of what has occurred over the last 2 and a half years as far as my battle with cancer, but this is a glimpse of what I do remember. Hopefully my story can help someone out there. Much love to you all.

    May 5/23 I just found you Sarge, and although I know you are gone now, I think that the Universe will ensure you get the message. I was hanging on every word you said. Thank you for being so blunt, and explaining what really goes on when you have to deal with something like this. Both of my parents died of mesothelioma, a lung cancer caused by exposure to asbestos. We as adult children of my dad (who died first) never really had any idea what he went thru, and what my mom went thru caring for him. She was diagnosed 10 yrs after he was, and died 5 months later. Thank you for explaining the fears, pain, and endless appointments and surgeries and treatments you've had to endure. This is so valuable, for so many of us who are empaths, and want so badly to understand what's really going on, so that we will know better how to offer help to friends and loved ones. I'm going to call my daughter and text her tomorrow too! I hope the Universe has wrapped you in it's loving embrace, and you are there across the rainbow bridge, with all of the animals you've had, who have gone on before you. Bless you, and much love to your family.

I get that not everyone has the same views when it comes to same sex relationships (including marriage), but there is a time and place for everything, and this is not that time or that place! I, like many others, followed Sarge throughout her cancer journey, up until the very end. She was a beautiful person, and she loved and appreciated her followers, as we all did in return. I'm always suprised when I come across people like yourself that leave inappropriate or rude comments, all the while hiding behind the cloak of religious values! You are supposed to be representing God and following the principal's that Jesus laid out for us! I didn't hear Jesus in anything you said! No one's perfect, we all fall short from the glory of God, but if your going to play the religious card like you did in your response to me, maybe you should think before you leave disrespectful comments, under a video where the person your referring to has already lost her battle to cancer and passed away!

      @@marym1053 You don't have to respond back to me, it's enough to know you'll read my message anyway! I did not claim to be active in the church, I said only that I was raised as a Christian! So no, you probably didn't hear Jesus in anything I said, but I didn't hear Jesus in anything you said either! I actually went back and re-read your comment, along with another for whom agreed with you. Neither comment reflected anything but assumptions and judgements, no real message, so what was the point! Because of how rude and disrespectful you were in what you said, no one is going to want hear anything about what God says, if it's coming from someone like you! I've met many of Christians that have the same approach as you do, and the message that they try to convey although true, always falls on deaf ears! Anytime you use judgement, fear, or consequences to get people to follow God, you fail! Again, Sarge is no longer here. I don't know what her relationship with God was, other than the fact that she was a believer (or at least she claim to be). Id like to remind you that you are a sinner too! TBH, your actually doing a disservice to God, by approaching this topic the way you have! God wants us to choose him because we want to, not because we're sacred of what will happen if we don't! Just like with any relationship, one has to devote time to get to know that person, and it's the same when we come to know God.

I am the way the truth and the life no one cometh to the Father but by me saith the Lord. There’s everlasting life in heaven for eternity through Jesus alone if we open our heart to Him. For those that reject the son of God there’s hell for eternity. Please seek the Almighty Savior. God bless!!🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

    This video was so heart wrenching to watch. I was in tears with you as you told your story. I lost my dad and his brother both to colon cancer. So many think it's an older person's cancer so wouldn't think of having a colonoscopy before age 50. Because of my dad I had my first at age 40 and removed three polyps. I had my last two years ago and removed three more. So far benign. Your video will be a voice for others to be checked and not let symptoms go. May you be in peace.

I have so much empathy for what Sarge had to go through, a good friend was diagnosed with colon cancer at 29. You're never too young to push for screening and colonoscopy. Stay safe everyone, Rest in peace Sarge 💗

You have so much strength, and it is admirable & is definitely not going unnoticed. I don't want a response to my comment, but i will continue to keep my own faith & hope up over this battle of yours. I don't know you, but I love you. You're an awesome person. I'm so glad fluffy encouraged you to make a CZcams. You keep on keeping on, & remember your fading tattoo. That ain't for nothin girl. Cancer will NEVER have YOU! Hugs 💛 God bless you my new friend

    She took control in the end of her medical days and that empowered her so much. I'm glad she got to do that. I didn't realize in my previous comment that she has already passed on. I pray for her wife and family to find peace. It take so much time. When my sister killed herself people would tell me time would make it better, but TIME was my enemy for the longest time. The longer time went on, the more I missed her. It DOES get better in the sense that you learn to live with it in better ways. You'll have good days and bad ones, slowly the bad ones are further and further apart. God bless!!

I can say though that alot of us have gone through the horrible heartache of having to watch a loved one live through this hell daily.
