Antonia Hylton, a correspondent for NBC News was diagnosed with a rare type of cancer, a neuroendocrine tumor. About two years ago, she started having constant stomach issues, but she didn't let it slow her down.
Knowing that Black people have the highest rate of colon cancer in the U.S. and that she has a family history of colon cancer, Hylton said, "I went to see a specialist who sent me for a colonoscopy."
Three weeks after her 30th birthday in September, Hylton received a message from her doctor that the screening test revealed a polyp, which turned out to be a neuroendocrine tumor, which is a rare type of cancer that releases hormones into the bloodstream. The good news for Hylton was that her doctor caught the tumor early.
Neuroendocrine tumors most commonly develop in the gastrointestinal tract, specifically the small intestine.
"I learned a really important lesson at 30 to listen to myself and to put myself first," she explained. "I love my job. I worked hard here at NBC, and I'm not going to stop doing that. But I've learned the lesson that I really need to put my health first and not push these things off."
We've been saying for many years now, that there's something about 3 and cancer. Hylton was born on September 26, 1993; Life Number 3. She started her life in a First Pinnacle 35/8; the "inheritance" 8 and she's currently in the sixth year of her Second Pinnacle 48/3.
8-borns are workaholics! Oftentimes they put their duties, moneymaking and climbing the ladder of success, first; therefore, their health often goes uncared for.
For everyone, October 2023 pulls in the energy of 2024. 2024 is Hylton's Personal Year 43/7 a period of emotional and physical healing. It's time for Hylton to relax and exercise moderation in what she does.
To sum up, on account of ill health, many more 8-borns, people born on the 8 ,17, or 26 of any calendar month, Life Number 8, Personal Year 8 or Pinnacle 8 will grab the spotlight in the next twelve months. For ordinary folks that are 8-born or have someone in the family that is 8-born; not properly caring for one's health will have consequences.
