Hello, I am James Mecale.
I am a recent survivor of Esophogeal cancer. Before I was diagnosed with cancer, I started on my fitness journey and did one round (90 days) of P90X. I initially did P90X in order to get my Type II Diabetes under control. With my A1C at an ultra high level of 13 I needed to do something to get my health in order. After becoming a P90X graduate, I started a second round of P90X. But life took a different turn and I was diagnosed with esophogeal cancer a week after I was taken off all my diabetes and high blood pressure meds. After going through chemotherapy, radiation and surgery, I am happy to say that I am now cancer free. Going through the journey with cancer has made me more appreciative of the life I have now. I am living proof that miracles can happen and that someone can bounce back from a disease like cancer and get strong and healthy again!
