Cancer Schmancer

When I spoke with my case manager, Heidi, on Chemo day, she was commenting about how people often think that after cancer treatment, you can then move on with your life. She said that, because it is such a life-changing event, and because of the constant possibility of recurrence, it is more accurate to think about "navigating" through your new life of living with cancer. I like that. It matches my feeling of needing new navigational skills, new life skills really.
Some of those skills I am beginning to get from the Healing Journey course that I went to yesterday and the Journaling class I went to today. Both are designed to prompt me to evaluate carefully the way I want to live from now on.
