40-49
Michelle
breast cancer
stage two

I feel as if I have walked through the fire.  (I thought I had done that prior to the diagnosis).  I have been through an enormous amount of self-discovery for years, starting at about thirteen. I took on many disciplines of study and thank goodness, one was spiritual healing.

The day of my diagnosis I was ready. As far as how to work my thinking in a positive manner.  The emotions caught me off guard though. Pure, raw feelings.  All the stuff I thought I had worked out and mastered through earlier counseling came pouring out.  It was like an exorcism of feelings.  I can tell you this--- healing from cancer is about one major movement in your  mind--forgiveness....I am very calm and at peace with myself now. It is doable, tough but doable.
