I remember just how afraid I was. I was just as much afraid of the treatment as the diagnosis. So I thought I could talk about it in an authentic way.

When I was going through my cancer treatment, I learned that you can never ask a stupid question. I asked every single question that came to my mind, and I believe that helped to calm my own anxiety.

I'm not really the nurturer type.

I tend to focus on what I'm doing at the moment, and that takes up the entire span of my focus.

You can't just take care of everybody else all the time.

I don't have much patience with sick people.

I wish I had a little more joy of cooking - because mostly I have anxiety of cooking. I'm so proud when things come out well.
