For years Gabriela Aguilar-Servin experienced pain and bloating in her abdomen, but after one of her annual check ups with her gynecologist, they referred her to Mission Hope Cancer Center.
Gabriela Aguilar-Servin is a cancer survivor who has lived in Santa Maria for 25 years since immigrating from Mexico City.
"My doctor said it was bigger than a basketball," she said. Then came a 2-year rehabilitation process and chemotherapy journey.During her first chemotherapy appointment, she vividly remembers when two patients approached her and welcomed her with what she described as a"warm smile and wise words of encouragement."
"They helped me sign up to many classes where I found a support network and activities that helped me thrive," Aguilar-Servin said. She joined nutrition courses, psychological therapy, energy balancing, acupuncture, yoga, aquatics, and a variety of other workout classes with physical therapist John Malinowski.
Going through the cancer survival journey has taught Aguilar-Servin the importance of spending more time with her family and friends, tending to herself by doing what she loves, including assembling puzzles and gardening.
