Having cancer gave me membership in an elite club I'd rather not belong to.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Cancer has given me a dose of humility. I'm much more empathetic. It's a club I would rather not have joined, but it is a club.
I'm hanging in there, trying to spend as much quality time with my wife and kids as possible, and though it's very frustrating to know I won't beat the cancer, there's a great satisfaction in knowing that I'm walking off the field with no regrets.
I wish I could never spend another second talking about cancer and all it does to everyone it surrounds, but unfortunately, that cannot be because of my life.
Having cancer empowered me to take more risks. I knew beating cancer was going to shape me, but it wasn't going to be all of me.
I enjoy working with the American Cancer Society because I fully support its mission of saving lives and creating a world with less cancer and more birthdays for everyone.
When you're not part of a club, you have to find another way of surviving.
Cancer is cancer. I've got a great life if I can just stay alive.
I never thought of having cancer as something that was unfair. I just braced myself and tried to get through it.
I'm fighting cancer and I refuse to give up.
I refuse to join any club that would have me as a member.
