cancerversary

I survived emergency surgery almost 4 years ago.

still here.
no cancer.                                       (don't jinx!)
yay.

SOMETIMES I'M JUST AFRAID

 

KEEP YOUR SUNNY SIDE UP!

SO FUNNY I FORGOT TO CRY

DO I HAVE TO CRY?

Giving yourself permission to laugh is as important as giving yourself permission to cry and grieve. That's because humor is an important defense mechanism; it can help people with cancer adjust to the stress of their illness and treatment. Being able to laugh can create a sense of power. By helping you adjust to the reality of your illness, it can give you a renewed sense of control over your life.
