On a good day one can hope for things to fall into place as we want them to. But when you get a cancer diagnosis even best laid plans go out the window.
If you work, your concentration and energy are compromised.
If you are a parent, your priorities are shifted from others to yourself.
If you are a friend, you become the taker vs the giver.
Even simple things like hopes, wishes, and dreams have to be reassessed on a daily basis. The biggest advice I gave June was…
Take control of the things you can control. Like how you make yourself feel better, what you have for dinner (kit kats), and how you choose what makes you laugh. Those things cannot be taken away. They are within your control. Doctors appointments, medication costs, family demands/expectations, and treatments we will suffer through together.
