There’s No Right Way To Respond To A Cancer Diagnosis

When our loved ones are diagnosed with cancer we search the internet looking for answers. We buy supplements, vitamins and books to give our cancer-fighting friend. We talk to doctors, and get referrals and search for a miracle cure. We do everything we can because we don’t want to lose our lover, friend, sister, bookclub member or anyone we ever met to a disease that claims the young, the good and the fearless. We know how precious life is and to envision a future without us in it can cause us to live a little better the next day, enjoy the sunset and give a little more love out. That’s the flip side to cancer, like the shadows show the light, cancer shows life.
