Everything has positive and negative consequences.

As much as I would have liked to have kept my cancer private, I now realize that I have a certain responsibility to those who are fighting their own fights and may be able to benefit from learning about mine.

I deeply believe in one's own positive will to overcome even the most daunting challenges.

In the face of excruciating pain and uncertainty, I never lost hope, and it never occurred to me to stop fighting - not ever.

I'm holding onto the hope that there is some reason that I got cancer and there is something - that may not be very clear to me right now - but that I will do.

Everything has positive and negative consequences.

Everyday is a good day, just some days are better
