No stress!!!

Hello! I refuse to stress or let anyone stress me! Stress is not good for anyone, especially a Cancer Survivor! I pick & choose my battles, wisely! I won't argue anymore! I realized something very important during my bout with Cancer. Life is too short to waste time & energy on stupid stuff! Yes, I get upset! But, I've learned to let things go. Please realize that your health is the most important thing! You can't be no good to yourself, children & spouse if your health is not good. Take care of your body! Let the stress go! Give yourself a time frame to be mad & release it! Stress will age a person ten years! When people want to argue, let them argue with themselves! You can't argue with a FOOL! I would argue a person down & stress! Cancer taught me to let it go! Do you hear me? LET IT GO! My husband irritated me today! The old me would have argued him down & told him where to get off! The new me didn't argue or get upset! I let it go! I let him vent & look like the crazy person! Lol! I wish everyone a stress free night! Have a Blessed night! ;) I'll be back soon!

Out of the box

I did something yesterday I wouldn't have done! I enjoyed myself! I am living & shocking people! Live outside the box! Don't sit back & watch everybody else enjoying life & reading about their fun! Go out & create ur own fun! I feel GREAT! My friend said it best! Cancer made me more courageous! Some people can't handle the new "me". Oh well! I hope everyone had a great weekend! Have a Blessed evening! I'll be back! ;)

The start of it all!

     This is the month I was told I had Cancer Two years ago! June was a very hard month for me! I will not let this month bother me any more! I had a birthday & June 18,2009, my father passed away & June 20th on my husband's birthday is when I got that faithful call from the Dr, telling me that I did in fact have Cancer! I said, Lord I can't handle anymore! I cried for hours that day! I knew I had the fight of my life ahead of me! I was so depressed! My family was so sad! I had a series of test to take before I could began my treatment. All I knew was I had Cancer. I didn't understand anything else! I found out I was stageII, which was not bad at all! The Dr's said if I was going to have Cancer, that mine was the kind to have. Highly curable! That gave me hope! I will tell you this bit of advice, don't go online reading about Cancer right away! Big mistake! I read so many horror stories about death! That put me in a deeper depression! Concentrate on what kind you have & be positive & pray, pray, pray! I spent the rest of June in a dark place. I decided to fight! That's all I could do! Surround yourself with positive people. You need a strong support team. I had to get rid of negative people! Why would you tell a person who just found out they have Cancer, that you know a lot of people who died from Cancer? That's a big NO, NO! That's why I decided to write a book. Teaching people what not to say to a Cancer patient. I am better able to deal with the month of June! I look forward to June. It's my celebration month! I'll be back later! Enjoy you day :)

Feeling Great

Today I woke up feeling Great! I had a lot of thoughts throughout the  night. I wrote a book about Cancer. I have more things I want to add to my book. I will get my book published! It will help some people. I have so much to say! I feel like I'm going to burst! I hope all is well with everyone today. I must get out & do something today! I can't waste this great feeling that I have today! God is AWESOME!!!! I'll be back later, I just wanted to post my very 1st blog. So excited! Have a Blessed Day!!!!!   :)
