The Blessings of Cancer


How does being diagnosed with cancer affect you?

It challenges you to exceed your perceived limits of bravery.

It awakens you to save the “simple” pleasures of life…

Family,

Holidays,

Sunrises,

Tulips blooming,

Birthday candles,

Christmas tree lights,

Opening day at the ballpark…

 

It helps you to extend your level of generosity to others.

 

It exposes your vulnerability, your weaknesses, your temper.

 

It occupies every extra spare thought of your waking and sleeping hours.

 

It forces you into reality one day, denial the next.

 

It inspires you to set goals,

 

And to exceed them!
