Christina told me that she was reading a blog about a man who preferred to use the term "living with cancer" because he felt it was more accurate. I don't know if I like that either, although I do like the emphasis on LIVING. But the ultimate goal is to get rid of it. Of course, that's my goal- maybe he has a type you have to live with.
Any ideas? I do have some goals that I try to follow in my battle with cancer. For example:
- I am asking my Father in Heaven for his help and guidance. I am asking for a miracle in my life.
- I am trying to live closer to the spirit. I have felt the spirit very strongly throughout this experience and I want to keep that feeling by being obedient to promptings I receive.
- I am trying to eat healthy foods and drink lots of water.
- I'd like to be more physically active, but most days I realize that the best thing I can probably do for myself is to rest
- I am trying to balance work and home life, realizing that home life is much more important.
- I want to spend as much time as possible with my wife and children. Friends too!
That's a pretty good list for now.
