I am 2 years out from my cancer diagnosis. I have finished my chemo, thank the Lord. My latest scans and lab work are all negative, which is wonderful news. I have been shocked to find that I still deal with fear daily. My fear comes like a light switch, flipping on and off, mostly in alone moments. It comes and goes like that for me. I have decided to accept it and face it squarely at those times. I silently tell this fear that it will NOT rule my life and that everyone has uncertainty in one way or another. I will NOT let cancer take my life BEFORE I am dead. That is my DAILY choice, to chose life and hope and faith. Take all the chemo and other treatments your doctors suggest and then that is the best you can do. Love your famiy and your friends and hold them dearly. We both have a huge thing called HOPE. God bless you as you fight your cancer, new friend.
