Quote

You're never really cancer-free and I should have known that.

I feel I lost my innocence to cancer.

I feel like I've lost 10 years of my life to cancer.

If I've learned anything, it's to live in the moment, and the gift that cancer gives you is, you just assume I'm only here today, and I am going to seize that moment and cherish it.

Cancer taught me to stop saving things for a special occasion. Every day is special. You don't have to get cancer to start living life to the fullest. My post-cancer philosophy? No wasted time. No ugly clothes. No boring movies.

When I was diagnosed with cancer, like so many other people, my life changed forever.

I have been unexpectedly confronted with my own mortality as I was told that I had cancer.

When you get cancer, it's like really time to look at what your life was and is, and I decided that everything I've done so far is not as important as what I'm going to do now.

Once cancer happens it changes the way you live for the rest of your life.

I never thought of having cancer as something that was unfair. I just braced myself and tried to get through it.
