Some days there are no words to express what we feel. I remember my Mom telling me how much she loves me but never really "got it" until I was eventually a Mother. I think cancer is the same way...people who love us think they know what we are feeling (or should feel) but they don't really "get it" unless they've walked this road. Sadly, even if they have had a cancer experience, each one is uniquely our own. My oncologist told me never listen to ANYONE who wanted to advise me on what I should think or feel about my cancer diagnosis/treatment. He reminded me that when it comes to pain, everyone's is different. Hope this helps! Hang tough...I know you can get through this!!

You've been on my mind today, Sonya. I'm hoping that you are getting the care you need and feeling strong as you face your recent diagnosis. You're in my prayers...

I take it from those two little words that you just got some big news. Know that this is a good place to ask questions, find others who can really relate and inspire and just listen. Shoot me a message if you need some moral support. Try to stay positive and see yourself as a victor instead of a victim. Some days will be easier than others. Good luck!
