[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Take it day by day; don't think too far ahead. You really do not know what the future will be.[/quote] If you can, try this. Easier said than done I know. I was diagnosed with ovarian cancer in my early 40s and had a 7-year-old DD. Next month, it will be 20 years since that diagnosis, something I was pretty sure I’d never get to. As to the fight verbiage, I’m not a fan. When you have cancer, it’s not a fair fight, and the win/lose metaphor can just make you feel defeated or that you didn’t try hard enough. Good luck to you, OP. Watch some trashy TV, buy a book you’ve been looking forward to reading, have a glass of your favorite beverage, just something to keep your mind off things, even for 15 minutes. [/quote]
