A short Life. A walk to remember

A walk to remember

This is a story about a beautiful 21 years old Katie Kirkpatrick, her dream was to marry her high school sweet heart.

Katie was diagnose with malignant brain tumor. She continues with her studies as long as she could, but her cancer came back with inoperable lung tumor wrapped around her pulmonary arteries.

She was always smiling every day no matter what , simply because life is too short to cry for anything.

She was a true angel,  it didn’t matter how bad was her situation, she kept smiling and thinking on her vision, her dreams which was to get married, inspired others and she did. She showed us how to live, with a smile and belief, as well as faith.

Now we ask to ourselves, Why we are here and how can we make this life really significant?

Don’t wait for the perfect moment, take the moment and make it perfect.

“Life is a gift, and it offers us the privilege, opportunity, and responsibility to give something back by becoming more.”~Tony Robbins

Life is like “After the rain, the sun reappears – there’s life. After the pain, the joy will still be here – there’s life. For it is out of the darkness that we learn to see and out of the silence our songs come to be and all that we dream of awaits patiently because – there’s life.”~author unknown.

“Struggle in life may happen with or without your choice but a FIGHT with life happens only with YOUR choice”.~NovoneeL Chakraborty

Why I do what I do

Why I do what I do

 

work,jobWhen I was working, I thought that was the only way to make a living.

Every day I show up to work and give my all.

There was always  drama at  work, my boss was taking credit of all the hard work that I did and that was not fair. I felt lost, I didn’t have any direction on which way to go.

Then I realize that I was not going anywhere and decided to change my career.

I start working with another company, did the same thing and then I start felling sick.

I told my employer  that I was going to Dr’s to find out what is going on with me.

I went through several Dr’s until one of them told me that there was something wrong and he referred me to a specialist Doctor which is in Tampa.

I went through all sort of tests, machines. (MRI, Bone Scan, etc..) and then the results change my life for ever.

The Doctor deliver the news that I have stage 4 breast cancer metastatic to the bone.

hip replacement recovery

Doctor said that they have to perform a total hip replacement because it’s about to break and you will not be able to walk again”

I started crying, it was like hitting the wall, then I was asking myself what now??

What am I going to tell my family?

I felt lost, with so many thoughts and emotions rushing into my head.

Then  the surgery was performed a week later after I was diagnosed, which I thank God that went well, the Dr said that it was a big surgery.

I started physical  therapy.

I received a phone call from my employer, telling me while I was in recovery, “Sorry,  we have to let you go” that was my Christmas gift, they cut me off!  The benefits are gone, no job, no health care, and all along I thought that I have a secure job.

Bottom line is, if you think you have a safe job there is no such a thing, it takes away your time with your family, your health, your entire life.

Everyone is struggling with something all the time. It’s how we learn from our struggles and our perspective on them that allows us to break through what’s holding us back.

Find something that you’re really passionate about doing in your life. Pursue this passion, set goals and commit yourself to excellence every day…

My vision is to inspire others and make a difference .

freedom

New Challenge, new Beginning…

Don’t let life pass you by, make the change.

A Quote from(Law of Attraction):

“Learn from the past, Set vivid, details goals and dream for tomorrow. But live in the only moment of time which you have control over.   NOW ”

Why I do What I do?

to have financial freedom,

to be able to pay my cancer treatments,

have a life that my husband and I deserve and to help others to do the same.

Decide…..Commit….Make the change…Reach your dreams!!!

A new day

If tomorrow never comes

If tomorrow never comes

A new dayNever thought that this journey will not be easy….
Never thought that I will see so many different faces every day
faces with worries…
faces with wonder…
faces with sorrow…
faces looking for an answer…
faces looking for hope, for a new beginning…

When you hear the word Cancer
you just feel lost
you feel in shock
your feelings change in a flash…
you just don’t believe what you hear,
you just feel like you hit a wall
you are on denial,
then you just realize that it’s happening
it is real.

Now is the time to change my life.
What if tomorrow never comes?….
lets not focus on that
lets be thankful for every day you have,
you see life in a different prospective and also you learn
how to prioritize.

You look for words of comfort:
“You raise me up,
so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up,
to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up….. To more that I can be.” (every time I hear this it keeps me going and think positive)

Every time I go to the Hospital for treatments
I see so many faces with different situations, when I bring my smile
it shines the room and I bring the smile to everyone in need.
You know that you are not alone…
Lets bring a smile every day
be thankful for what you have

What if tomorrow never comes
lets just live today and every day…
When you pray to God this is what you hear:
“Because He lives
I can face tomorrow
because He lives all fear is gone;”

Another quote from unknown author:

“Stay strong, no night is too long. You’ll make it through this fight, you’ll win back your life. I believe you can make it, I believe you are strong. ”

“Be kind, for everyone you know is fighting a hard battle.” — Plato

Never Give up !!! Be Strong!!!!

There is always a new day.

 

Make a Great Day!

Too busy and My Life changed

Too busy and My Life changed

I was too busy Working for a company that I thought I had a secure job since they have benefits, and they pay you so you can pay your utilities, food, etc. I was working paycheck to paycheck, and I though that was OK.

No time for my self, my family or my husban

Until one day everything change…

I got sick not knowing what was going on with me, I went through several Doctor’s until one of them refer me to an Orthopedic, they did x ray and went to see the Dr. for the results and he told me that what he sees is not good and that was not his area of expertice and he refer me to another DR, which is in Tampa, FL. They order a bunch of test, went thru all scan. MRI, Ct scan, body scan etc…   then results were in.

I Went to the Dr with my husband  for results, and he told me that I have Stage 4 Breast Cancer metatatic to the bone.  They have to perform a hip replacement and reconstruction.

 I started to cry….  the news hit me so hard that I thought I was sincking like a rock when you throw it into the water…..

The Dr said that they need to do it and also start the treatments. 

They did, I went to surgery they did a hip replacement on my left side, went to radiation and as of now still with treatments. Hormonal chemo.

Then in the middle of my recovery I received a call from the company I use to work for to let me go but you can apply any time, they do it because is what’s best for business.  That’s kind like merry christmas to me I told her and then hang up. I was upset no job, no health care, but then it hit me. I said this is not worth it, they can replace you at anytime and doesn’t matter what company you work with. I learn in this journey of my life that you cannot take anything for granted and you have to enjoy life as the fullest. 

So now I’m going to help my husband to work from home, another chapter of life has turn and a new beginning is starting now, is not going to be easy as is, I have to pay my hospital bills since this treatments aren’t cheap.  

Now I want to have time for me, my family, my husband he is been wonderful and make me stronger than ever and thank God to let me see the true meaning of life.

So join us . We will like to help you build a business so you can also have time and freedom that most companies will not let you do.  How cool it would be to not have a dress code ???    http://www.yestoincome.com/

It’s Personal: How To Summon Your Strength And Fight Your Cancer

CAncer

It’s Personal: How To Summon Your Strength And Fight Your Cancer

Affecting millions worldwide, cancer is significant disease that demands your full attention, and the attention of all who are support you. Education can help you deal with cancer better. Through education, both cancer patients and their loved ones can gain knowledge pertaining to the newest treatment options and also learn about which treatments are showing the best success rates. The follow tips will help anyone dealing with cancer, to do so more effectively.

If you have been diagnosed with cancer, accept it now to avoid painful realizations later. Get prepared to fight.

TIP! Have someone drive you to your doctors appointments when you’re undergoing treatment for cancer. When you are dealing with cancer, it can be very tiring and you may be sick for awhile afterwards.

Do what you can to protect your skin from developing cancer. It may seem counterintuitive, but UV rays can still damage your skin even when the sun isn’t shining directly.

Specific foods, like tomatoes, can help defend against certain types of cancers, including prostate cancer. Studies have shown this to be true.

If cancer is something that you have already began to cope with, perhaps it’s time to ease things up a bit and bring the entertainment system into your room. If you have never allowed a TV in your bedroom before, now is the time to allow it. Chances are, you will spend quite a few hours in bed, and there is no substitute for a slick TV to keep your wandering mind some company. This piece of equipment may prove invaluable for passing the time as you recover.

TIP! If you plan to be outdoors on a sunny day, you should ensure that you are protected by sunblock. The sun’s ultraviolet rays can be harmful to the skin.

Communicate your feelings! If you think that your friends and relatives are not being supportive, broach the issue with them carefully. Be kind, but also specific, about what you need from them because they may be looking for a cue from you. However, it is very important to approach this type of conversation carefully. These are very trying circumstances. Always use love as a basis! It is critical that you not have any regrets at this point.

Technological advances have dramatically improved the odds of beating cancer over the past 30 years, allowing many to live normal, happy lives. Your options for cancer treatment will be outlined to you by your oncologist.

Not only will you feel your best each day by keeping a healthy diet along with lots of regular exercise, it also lowers the risk of getting cancer. If you want to prevent cancer, you need to eat a diet rich in fruits and vegetables, exercise for at least half an hour a day and drink at least eight glasses of water per day.

TIP! A diagnosis of cancer can be like a death sentence. Cancer is a serious illness, but it is important to treat a cancer patient with respect and hope.

Certain clothes will not keep the suns rays from damaging your skin. If you can’t find UV blocking clothing in a local store, buy yourself a wardrobe of it online.

Diarrhea can be a side effect of some cancer treatments. If this happens to you, you should try cutting coffee out of your daily routine. Although coffee can help you stay alert, it contributes to diarrhea. Try to avoid caffeine, so it doesn’t make the severity of the symptoms worse.

When facing any kind of cancer, you are going to need to find some kind of a support system. If you do not wish to speak with your loved ones about how you feel, you could always join a support group to speak with others in your situation.

TIP! It is important that you participate in treatment, rather than believing that it is entirely up to the doctors. Your participation will support your recovery.

Don’t let the fight frighten you. This is not just any fight. You are fighting for your life. If you refuse to give up and stay motivated, your chances of beating cancer could increase.

Cancer Patients

Joining a local cancer support group can be helpful for new cancer patients, as well as long term sufferers of the disease. You will be able to speak with other cancer patients about the challenges they have to live with, and make friends. Family members are usually invited to join you as well.

TIP! Ask questions of medical professionals as you enter treatment. You should understand the why and wherefore of each treatment, and how it will affect your body.

As stated above, there are millions of people around the world who are facing the deadly diagnosis of cancer each year. To gain any hope of recovery, cancer patients must seek the latest in medical thought and opportunities for treatment. The advice in this article will help cancer patients, and their loved ones, in their struggle against this tragic disease.

Looking On The Bright Side: How To Deal With Your Cancer

There are various things in life that we wish to accomplish, but we don’t get the results we desire. There some things that it is a matter of life and death to accomplish, such as fighting cancer. Read this article and give yourself the ammunition of knowledge with the insights and advice in the following paragraphs.

You need to keep your friends and family fully informed of your condition. Trying to play brave can actually leave you feeling alone and isolated at the very time when you need a support group. An open line of communication can forge a powerful connection between you and your loved ones that will benefit everyone involved.

Due to progress in medical research, more treatments are available for cancer, and many people are able to successfully beat the disease. Oncology professionals will have the ability to explain the treatment options for the kind of cancer you have.

TIP! Maintaining and improving a healthy lifestyle is a good support system when you first learn of a cancer diagnosis. To be healthy you need to eat a balanced diet, exercise regularly, and get about eight hours of sleep each night.

Whether you have recently been diagnosed with cancer or you have had it for awhile, you may want to join a cancer support group. You can converse with others afflicted to learn how you can cope with cancer, both mentally and physically. Most of these groups also welcome family members and friends of cancer patients.

Help your loved ones who suffer from cancer by searching for people they can speak with. There are plenty of virtual support groups, as well as local cancer survivors who can speak with your loved one. This helps the cancer sufferer get more emotional outlets.

Prior to starting treatment, be sure to ask all questions that you have so you understand what kinds of changes your body will undergo. By being prepared for what is to come, you will be better able to cope with the changes. For example, if you expect to lose your hair, you’ll be able to get advice about wigs or scalp treatments from others who have already gone through it.

TIP! If you are the family member of a cancer patient, it is important that you do not treat your loved one any different. Cancer patients do best when surrounded with positive energy.

If your loved one suffer from cancer, you should accompany them to all of their appointments. Bringing a clear-headed friend or associate along will help you have good communications with your doctor.

Try to stick to your normal daily routine as much as possible. Focus on getting through each day, one at a time, keeping a flexible mindset when it comes to making changes. Because no one can predict the future, don’t try to over-plan. Instead, you should focus on living your life one day at a time.

Staying at your ideal weight, eating right and exercising regularly not only helps you feel wonderful everyday, but these habits can lead to a reduction in the risk of cancer development. Do the usual things, including eating fruits and vegetables, drinking eight glasses of water per day, and exercising 30 minutes per day, five days per week.

TIP! The two most common treatments for cancer of the ovaries are chemotherapy and surgery. With surgery, the options range from removing ovaries to doing a complete hysterectomy.

Alcohol can increase your risk of cancer. Heavy or chronic drinking puts you at a greater risk for developing certain types of cancer. If you consume a lot of alcohol you are more at risk for cancer of the mouth, esophagus, or throat. Minimize alcohol consumption, if you drink it at all.

Specific foods, like tomatoes, can help defend against certain types of cancers, including prostate cancer. Documented research has proven these relationships.

Learn the signs and symptoms of cancer, and if you see anything unusual, see your doctor immediately. Early treatment is key to a positive outcome. There are several warning signs to be aware of such as a cough that will not go away, unexplained weight changes, or unusual lumps. These can all be signs of many different conditions, so it’s best to get medical advice, and find out what’s going on.

TIP! It is important to remember that your expectations do not always align with the realm of what is feasible. It is important to let those who are supporting you know that you appreciate all they are doing for you.

It is important to get the recommended daily dosage of vitamin E. Vitamin E can prevent many different types of cancer for both men and women. There are many tasty foods that can be incorporated into your diet in order to provide the appropriate amount of Vitamin E.

You have much to lose if you let cancer win. It is not too much to say your life is at stake.

Ideas On How To Live With Cancer

Hearing a cancer diagnosis is a life-altering and emotional time. A million thoughts race through your mind about treatments, life, death, your family, your friends, your job, and more. Although nothing can completely eliminate the stress of dealing with a cancer diagnosis and treatment, the tips given in this article will help to ease the process.

The discomfort of getting a mammogram is worth every second of clear results! The procedure is pretty quick, lasting only a few minutes. This type of screening can be the deciding factor in starting an effective treatment in time to avoid surgery, and possibly save your life. With this in mind, avoiding the screening because of some momentary discomfort just doesn’t compute.

Cancer prevention is a much wiser path than treating an avoidable cancer after the fact. Using a good sunscreen, and curtailing your hours in direct sunlight, will go a long way to preventing skin cancer.

TIP! Not all regular fabrics used in clothing are effective in blocking the harmful rays from your skin. There are many attractive styles available in some local stores, and they are also easily available online.

Some screenings are only good for finding cancer, but others can actually prevent whatever problem is detected before it gets worse. It’s easy to put cancer screenings off till it’s too late, but it is very important that you take the time for these important tests and screenings.

Make certain to study any relevant text you can about the particular cancer you, or someone close to you, has. Learning will give you the confidence you need.

Keeping your weight at a healthy level really helps to prevent cancers. People that are obese run a major risk of developing cancer and other harmful conditions. If you do struggle with your weight, work with a doctor to develop a plan for achieving a healthier weight. If you are already at a healthy weight, maintain it with regular physical activity and a balanced diet.

TIP! It can be devastating to learn that you or a loved one have contracted any form of cancer, almost feeling like a death sentence. Cancer can cause death, you should not treat these people like they are already gone.

Don’t be afraid to make yourself heard. Some individuals still have outdated views on cancer and will assume that the disease renders you useless and will question your ability to carry out even simple tasks, or they may fear that you could infect them. Have a good answer planned in advance and answer them immediately. This can help you with your treatment.

When coping with a cancer diagnosis, you must try to speak honestly and openly with friends, family, and especially your doctor. Putting on a front can be a temptation for some people in order to spare someone’s feelings. It’s very important that you express your feelings and fears openly, so that you can support each other.

Being an active participant in your treatments is a better strategy for fighting cancer, than to just passively allow the physicians to treat you. Don’t just check out and go with the flow. Avoiding discussing your condition won’t help you to get the treatment you need.

TIP! Find out what to expect from your body, before you go through your regular cancer treatments. Your doctor will be able to tell you what affect treatment and drugs may have.

Try to remember that although you are ill, you are still alive and life moves on. Try to maintain your routine for as long as you are able. If you like doings something, having cancer should not be a reason you should quit. It will bring you pleasure and a positive influence to your days.

Protect your skin from the sun to minimize your chances of getting skin cancer. Even if there are clouds in the sky the sun is still capable of causing very damaging effects on your body.

Guacamole is a delicious treat, and it contains nutritional properties that research indicates has cancer fighting abilities! Just combine some chopped tomatoes, jalapenos, green peppers and avocados. Then, add a little lime juice and a small pinch of salt. Next, stir and mash the paste until you reach the right consistency. The main ingredient in this dip, avocado, has compounds that limit the growth of cancerous cells in the body. Healthy and appetizing!

TIP! Take care of your physical health by getting adequate sleep. Sleeping enough provides your body time to recuperate and regenerate from treatments you are having, and recharges your body for the challenges of the coming day.

As you can tell, there are a ton of ways to decrease the amount of stress you go through, and to alleviate your fears about cancer and it’s treatment. Unfortunately, there isn’t any magic remedy out there that’s going to cure the disease, but there are many different ways in which to treat it and to help you feel at ease when treating it. You can overcome cancer by following these tips and keeping a positive outlook.

How To Keep Cancer From Taking Over Your Daily Life

In your life, you will not be able to win all of your battles. But, one battle we mustn’t lose is our fight with cancer. Prepare yourself, become knowledgeable with information to fight cancer; see the article below.

When someone you love or know is diagnosed with cancer, you may feel like a significant loss has occurred. Cancer is often fatal, but it isn’t over until it’s over. Many people lead many years of a great life, even after being diagnosed.

Colon Cancer

TIP! Finding cancer early on is critical to fighting and beating cancer. Have appointments regularly for tests and screenings to detect cancer prior to symptoms showing.

You should know and be mindful of the signs of certain forms of cancer, such as colon cancer, should you hope to detect it early. Some of the symptoms of colon cancer are bloody or thin stools and stomach cramping. If you have any of these symptoms, especially if you also are losing weight for no apparent reason, you should see your doctor as soon as possible. If you have any of these symptoms, get checked out by your doctor.

Get your daily requirement of vitamin E met. Vitamin E, consumed as recommended, has been proven to prevent cancer. Many foods contain significant amounts of Vitamin E and can easily be worked into your diet. Examples include sunflower and safflower oil, nuts, spinach, and avocado.

One of the most important things to remember is to have fun. Cancer doesn’t have to change any fundamentals of how you live your life. You should take time to do things you genuinely enjoy, such as going to events or treating yourself to a new book. You may have to do some extra planning so that exertion doesn’t get the best of you, but you do still need to have a life.

TIP! It’s crucial to be aware of the warning signs of cancer. When you notice any of these, visit your doctor so you will have the highest chance of survival.

The rules of sleep have not changed: get, as a minimum, eight hours a night. Your body will probably get exhausted and severely stressed from cancer treatments. Getting proper sleep helps your body heal from the treatment more quickly. In addition, sleeping enough helps raise your energy levels for the day ahead. If you find that you can’t get enough during the night hours, set aside a good time to squeeze in some shut-eye during the daylight hours too.

Getting Cancer

Being physically active can help your appearance and weight, along with also reducing your chances of getting cancer. When you exercise, your heart rates increases and your body sweats out bad stuff. These physiological processes help your body cleanse itself, which in turn assists in lowering your chances of getting cancer.

TIP! Regular clothing cannot fully protect your skin from the harmful effects of the sun. If your local stores do not carry them, check on the Internet; you are bound to come across some that are just perfect.

Sometimes, the best thing you can say to someone who has cancer is nothing more complicated than, “I love you”. Expressing your love and support in many ways is wonderful, but sometimes it is those three words that mean the most. Doing so reminds them that you care for them and want everything to work out.

If you get diagnosed with cancer early, you will have better chances of winning your battle. Be sure to get screenings and make appointments for them that include tests so you can be aware of any cancer cells that are starting to develop. When possible, it’s also good to give yourself a self-examination, such as a breast or testes exam, to see if anything seems abnormal.

When dealing with cancer, you must be honest and open with those in your life, including your family, friends and doctors. Everyone wants to provide a show of support, hope for the best, and not dwell on the negative when dealing with cancer. It is of utmost importance that you express how you feel, and what you fear to other people.

TIP! People often grieve for old ways and their previous lifestyle before they developed cancer. Although there is nothing wrong with having these feelings, do your best to forge ahead and get used to your new life.

You can not allow cancer to win the battle. It is not too much to say your life is at stake.

Don’t Let The Cancer Get The Best Of You

Cancer is a terrible disease, but the effects of it on your everyday health are not as commonly known. As is true with anything in life, taking the time to educate yourself about cancer will make it easier to deal with. Here are some tips to learn more about cancer.

It helps to understand cancer symptoms in order to get an early diagnosis. Unexplained loss of weight, bloody stools or cramps can all be early warning symptoms of colon cancer. You need to go to your physician and get tested if you have these symptoms.

Smoking can cause emphysema and lung cancer, as well as colon cancer. Tobacco causes colon polyps to grow in size; in addition, inhaling smoke causes carcinogens to enter the body and travel into the colon. These reasons are just more on top of the hundreds of other reasons to stop smoking.

TIP! Everyone knows that exercising regularly keeps you thin and looking good, but fewer people know that it also keeps cancer away. This means any activity that raises your heart rate and gets your sweating.

Cancer is very difficult for both the patient and his family. There is always hope. Doctors can treat cancer, and in some cases, even cure it.

The best way to increase your odds for surviving cancer is to know what to look for and seek immediate treatment. Look for lumps, moles and other unexplained skin changes. You should also be concerned about flu-like symptoms that don’t go away such as fever, fatigue and pain, especially if they are accompanied by weight loss. Finally, visit your doctor as soon as possible if you have blood in your stool or your stool gets progressively thinner. These can be signs of many different diseases, so speak with your doctor for a diagnosis.

There isn’t a healthy alcohol consumption when you have or are trying to prevent cancer. Heavy or chronic drinking puts you at a greater risk for developing certain types of cancer. These cancers can involve the esophagus, throat or the mouth. When you do drink, limit the amount of alcohol.

TIP! Don’t take cancer lying down. Since you’re fighting to live, you need to be in the best possible position to win.

What you expect to have happen, and what actually happens, are two different things. It is important to let those who are supporting you know that you appreciate all they are doing for you.

It’s important to protect your skin from the sun to prevent cancer. It may seem counterintuitive, but UV rays can still damage your skin even when the sun isn’t shining directly.

Don’t let anyone mislead you into thinking that alcohol prevents cancer. The only reason that wine helps fight and prevent cancer is due to the grapes. The higher your intake of alcohol, the greater your risk of developing certain cancers.

TIP! A prostate exam is a key part of preventing cancer in men. It’s important to schedule annual preventative doctor visits, and include a prostate exam.

Not all clothing is going to keep the damaging sun rays from making their way to your skin. UV protective clothing is readily available online if you are unable to find it in a local store.

When coping with a cancer diagnosis, you must try to speak honestly and openly with friends, family, and especially your doctor.

Solid Advice On Dealing With Cancer Symptoms

When you receive a diagnosis of cancer, your immediate and only focus should be on your recovery. You need to find out what options for treatment are available and get moral support. This article will provide you with advice that will help you deal with cancer.

If you quit smoking, it lowers your chances of getting lung cancer, but it also protects you against colon cancer. Smoking allows carcinogens to be transferred to the colon causing cancer and increasing the size of any colon polyps. You can minimize the risk to your colon if you quit smoking.

If you know someone with cancer, listen to what they have to say. You may find it hard, but if they are able to talk about how they are feeling, it will help them. Make sure not to give your personal opinions or interrupt; this time is for them.

TIP! As you deal with cancer in your life, no matter what type, you will need the support of others. You may have feelings that you don’t want to express to your family.

Stay out of the sun around noontime, specifically between 10am and 3pm. Get your outdoor play time in before those hours and you will seriously reduce the risk of skin damage that leads to cancer.

When it comes to cancer, be upfront and honest with all those around you. It’s natural for some people to appear brave and hopeful so that they can protect you. It is of utmost importance that you express how you feel, and what you fear to other people.

Be aware of what symptoms could mean cancer, and when you are most at risk. If you know you have risk factors, then these signals and symptoms can be observed more closely.

TIP! Consider setting up an entertainment center in you bedroom, if you are treating cancer. In the past, you may have banned television from your room.

If you are assisting a member of your family who has had a cancer diagnosis and you go with them to the doctor, ask your own questions. It is likely that you have questions related to your loved one’s condition. In addition, the better you understand your loved one’s diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment plan, the better equipped you’ll be to offer him or her the proper help and support.

Not every article of clothing will help keep the suns rays off of your skin. There are many attractive styles available in some local stores, and they are also easily available online.

Bring televisions and other entertainment devices into your bedroom once you’ve been diagnosed with cancer. If you did not allow a TV to be placed in your room before, this might be the right time to have one. While you receive your treatment, your bedroom may be your greatest retreat for a while. This can help the time go by as you try to get better.

TIP! Be proactive in accepting the challenges and changes that living with cancer brings. Be prepared now so you can fight later.

If diarrhea is happening a lot during your cancer treatment, stop drinking coffee. The coffee might seem like a good way to perk up, but it actually contributes to diarrhea. Choose non-caffeinated beverages to avoid aggravating your diarrhea.

You may need to stop drinking coffee if you are experiencing an upset stomach from your cancer treatment program. Caffeine can cause discomfort and stomach problems in cancer patients, so maybe it’s time to switch to decaf. Try to avoid chocolate, soft drinks and other products that contain caffeine too.

Be sure to seal any wooden playground equipment or wooden decks if created before 2005. Play sets that were made of wood before 2005 had a pesticide that contained arsenic. If you put a wood sealer on it you will prevent the chance your child will come in contact with the arsenic and develop cancer.

TIP! While many screenings detect only cancer cells, some screening equipment can now detect changes in the body that could lead to cancer in the future if preventative measures are not sought. Timely testing and screening is essential to make sure that it is not too late to obtain proper treatment that may save your life.

Try to maintain your normal lifestyle, as much as you can. You will have to make changes at certain points, so it’s advised to go ahead and adjust to the idea. Trying to plan around an unknown future can lead to unnecessary stress. You should live for today as much as you can.

It’s common for cancer sufferers to grieve that they can’t do certain things anymore. It’s alright and natural to have thoughts like these, but you have to keep your head up and push forward if you want to enjoy the life you have now. By embracing the present, you will be more joyful as you battle cancer.

Whatever it takes, the goal is to defeat cancer. The role of the doctors are to take care of your physical symptoms, but it may be difficult to find good emotional treatment while in the hospital.

TIP! Treating a loved one with cancer the same as you did before their diagnosis is key to their recovery. Cancer patients need all the positive energy from the loved ones as they can get, and when people feel sorry for them, they tend to feel bad about themselves.
