The workouts might have saved my life

Last yearl I (female/back then 29) hurt myself during a workout in the area of my abdomen.
I was working on my abs and was tying to gain musclemass.
My doctors told my it was just a bladder infection but after a week of a lot of pain I went to the ER and it was an appendicitis.
By accident the doctor at the hospital discovered it wasn't just appendicitis but it was appendix cancer.
I got surgeries.
At the moment, over one year later I am NED (no evidence of disease).
Without my workouts and muscels and bodyfat I would have had a much more difficult recovery.

The cancer metastasised because of the appendicitis. If I hadn't had hurt my appendix at that day the cancer would have just ... grown bigger and bigger without me even noticing.

And now I am thinking of starting working out again, just a little, gettin back my muscles 💪
... and maybe wish me luck the cancer is gone for good🍀
