Re: What has cancer given you? The good and the bad?
Cancer changed my life, but I'm still not sure it was for the good, I've met some wonderful and amazing people I would'nt otherwise have met and made lifelong friends but.....it's also given me a change of focus, much financial hardship and stress so it's hard for me to seperate the good from the bad.
I do agree with Becky's point though that its made me research and be more pro active in my healthcare and not trust any important decisons to my Dr's!
