Re: Decided to post...because I know you will understand...
Hey Ms. Moons- you came to the right place. You know we all understand and have walked a mile in these heavy shoes. As the other ladies have suggested, try to read one of the books or attend a seminar. It is very, very hard to not think that every ache and pain is not cancer, but chances are it is not.
Get your scans so you know for sure what you are dealing with and then you can move forward.
For me it is always about moving forward. I will not let cancer keep me from my life. It is mine and cancer can not take it away from me with fear, treatments, or whatever it throws my way.
Listen it upbeat music, dance in the sun and go forward.
We will all be waiting to hear about your scans.
Praying everything is fine.
Enjoy your weekend with your family and DO NOT WORRY! It never ever helped anything.
Best to you,
Emelie
