Help me Ive recently been diagnosed with cancer?

I am only 22yrs old and in the US Air Force and have been recently diagnosed with cancer of the brain and spinal cord. Apparently it is bad enough that I have to have an operation to have two of them removed from the bottom of my brain stem where it meets my spinal cord. I am also staioned in Okinawa, Japan so I am a very long ways from my home and family and I am more terrified than I have ever been. The doctors have discussed sending me to San Antonio, Texas for the operation because it is to delicate for then to want to do here. I am frightened, Is there anyone out there maybe even any cancer survivors who can offer any words of encouragement

I exercise every night (Boxing, Gym, Swimming) and I go for a long run every weekend, I don't drink much and don't smoke. I drink loads of water

however

My addiction is junk food - I go to the chippy twice a week, chinese once a week, Macdonalds for lunch once a week, crisps and chocolate bars on regular basis, love fizzy drinks (I try and eat a bit of fruit and veggies as well though but not much) but I never put on any weight and am below my BMI index.

Should I carry on enjoying my fast metabolism & eating junk or am I doing any other damage to my health even though I never put on any weight? If I am doing damage is there any way to cure this powerful addiction?

Howdy yall. I'm a writer working on a novel, and I have a question for anyone who had a surgery under general anesthesia:
What was it like for you to wake up after the surgery? What exactly were you feeling like?
Thanks.

I AM SOMETIMES NOT MYSELF. I will talk to the spirit in my mirror, he makes me talk to him, but he makes me practice what i will say in the future, like i have been thinkin of asking my crush out, and he will tell me how to do it. But sometimes i will do insane things like spit on my best friends, for no reason, and it is not me doing it! i feel like someone is controling me....he comes in and out, sometimes he is nice and mean, how do i talk to him, to make him stop?
