USA: – Pull on your jacket

Since she was 15 years old, Mia Richardson has been suffering from pain on one side of her back.

Every time she went to the doctor at her home in Lansing, Michigan, she was told the cause was simply “twisted thighs.”

But, in January of last year, a painful lump appeared on the side.

The orb grew bigger and bigger.

“I was always only told I had crooked hips, but then I discovered the bullet, and it really hurt,” she told SWNS news agency.

When Richardson went to see the doctor and showed him the bullet, it set off a full alarm.

It is believed to be harmless

Richardson, who was then 20 years old, was sent to a specialist.

She only needed to lift her jacket before the specialist spoke clearly:

This was cancer.

– It was a huge shock, she told the news agency.

After taking a biopsy from the ball, Richardson was told in September last year that the ball was called spindle cell sarcoma, which is very rare.

– I thought it was just a big cyst that could be easily removed, she says.

Grow and grow

Sarcomas are a group of malignant tumors that grow from connective tissue such as soft tissue, bone, cartilage, muscle, and fat, according to Large Norwegian Encyclopedia.

They are divided into two main groups: osteosarcoma and soft tissue sarcoma.

Sarcomas in soft parts of the body, such as muscle or adipose tissue, often cause swelling.

straight to the hospital

Richardson was sent straight to the hospital, where she had to undergo four grueling rounds of chemotherapy.

Then I waited for 25 rounds of radiotherapy.

According to Store norske lexikon, spread of sarcomas can occur locally, to the lymph nodes draining the primary tumor area, and through the bloodstream to the lungs and other organs.

In the case of Mia Richardson, the tumor has spread to her lungs.

– They discovered that it had spread to the lungs, but they were able to stop it, she said.

Money must be collected

Hoping to cover the huge medical expenses, a friend of Mia Richardson set up a fundraiser GoFundMe.

At the time of writing, more than NOK 200,000 has been raised.

Mia deserves to live a completely cancer-free life. No 20-year-old should be told they have cancer.”

In March, the ball will be played, and Mia Richardson is very much looking forward to it.

– The bullet still hurts very much, you say.
