Welcome to my new blog that goes with my website. I want this to be a forum primarily for women or men with breast cancer and breast cancer survivors, but I would like to welcome anyone with cancer and anyone who has a friend or loved one with cancer. I want this to be a place for discussion and venting if you need it. I plan to share some tips that helped me get through treatment, and I hope to learn some tips for living a healthy joyous life. My first question to you is this: What is the most positive lesson you will take away from your breast cancer experience? I look forward to reading your answers. I used to agonize over every flaw or perceived shortcoming, I let people tear me down with just a look. At times, I was no more than a door mat. When I found out that I had cancer and I could die from it, I learned to stand up for myself because suddenly, every breath I took was precious, life was precious, I was precious. Another thing I learned during my battle with breast cancer is that life goes on. The busier I stayed and the more connected I was with the everyday world, the easier it was for me to keep my cancer in prospective. To help you stay tuned in, I want to recommend a few businesses and blogs that I enjoy. Please note that I'm receiving no compensation for these recommendations. These are places I enjoy and I hope you will too. Some are area specific, but these blogs can be enjoyed by anyone anywhere.
