Is there something you are grateful for in regards to your cancer diagnosis?

I sometimes sit back and ponder the wonderful things that having cancer has brought me. Like this amazing community, new friendships, outlooks, etc. What about you?

  1. Cancer brought me HU, freedom from my first wife, and a new healthy outlook on life. So, yes, it's not all bad!

    1. I love the positive outcomes you have found through this and like you, am grateful for the HU community <3

  2. Cancer has helped me to be healthier and realize what's really important. I've learned so many things and hope one day my knowledge will cure me.

    1. I love that. Knowledge is absolutely the power to healing.

  3. Yes I value everything more. Time, relationships, experiences. I take nothing for granted and am grateful for every day I am given💚

    1. I love that! I was thinking the other day how I don't even take bad hair days for granted anymore! 😛 Thank you so much for sharing!

  4. I like to think of a cancer diagnosis as a wack to the side of your head (a wake up call.) It is like life is saying "You are not going to live forever ... where do YOU want to put your priorities"
