Today is the second of twelve monthly rounds of maintenance chemo for my bladder cancer. It has been tough, dealing with it for over four years.
But I have maintained a positive attitude, with a strong support system and a great sense of humor about it.
I recognize there are many people who have lost the faith or the will to help themselves, for a host of reasons known to only them. It is hard to adjust to this as a life, and sadly, some just can’t.
It is having a faith to believe; it is a test of character which makes us who we are. It is having the faith in God Who gives us the Grace to have the strength to cope with this dreaded disease.
It really doesn’t matter whether it is cancer of the bladder; it could be breast cancer, prostate or lung cancer. Or any other cancer. They are all difficult to deal with.
My Christmas Wish for all who suffer with this disease, whether directly as the patient, or the people around them, is for you to find the strength inside to be strong for each other. Then, you can cope with whatever comes your way.
It will be your best chance to help yourself beat this dreaded disease.
