When you are done fighting... keep fighting.
What to do while you’re waiting for your cancer to come back
It sounds pessimistic, but let’s be real: even when you are moving on with your life and enjoying survivorship or remission, you still worry about cancer from time to time.
Now that I am done with treatment I feel somewhat powerless. Brain surgeries and chemo sucks, but I at least felt like I was doing something to combat my disease.
Today I still have cancer and we are watching it… but for how long?
I say, screw “watch and wait.” What’s next?
Fight cancer with advocacy
There are three cancer-related themes I am interested in, and this year, I’m tackling them all.
- Adolescent and young adult cancer advocacy (also called AYA cancer)
- Brain tumor advocacy
- Cancer and social media
I’ve got irons in the fire for all three areas of interest, and 2012 is going to rock my world.
