When ever we are told that we have cancer it is a shock. The doctor will tell us that treatments are available and give us reassurance that something can be done to help us. But what we hear is YOU HAVE CANCER!
Nothing else gets through. At least not a first. So take a deep breath and let the tears come. Tears can be cleansing and they leave you exhausted. That is not a bad thing. Get some rest so you can start to listen. Cancer can be cured! Cancer can be treated! Cancer can be lived with and lived through!
You will need to be loved and treated like a person. Give your family a chance to be there for you.
Your family will need time too. You are not alone. Cancer affects so very many people. Your family, your friends, your co-workers, your neighbors and people you haven’t even met yet.
You have not met me yet but your cancer has and will affect my life.
I’ve spent over 20 years caring for people who have gone through what you are experiencing. I’ve cried, I’ve laughed, I’ve hugged, I’ve prayed. It has changed my life.
You won’t believe this but some people have actually told me cancer was the best thing that ever happened to them.
You will believe that cancer changes your life. It doesn’t have to be all bad.
Hang in there!
I want to give you the thing you need most……………HOPE…………HOPE IS REAL!
