I Am Scared

Sitting here at my desk at work and I just starting thinking about the fact that I have cancer. Even though they tell me it's very treatable and they expect a full recovery, I get scared sometimes. Because it's the "c" word and it's in my body. And then I go into a depression. I'm sitting at my desk at work right now and it's taking all my willpower not to start crying. Coming on here and typing this seems to help.

Stay positive and trust in your body. Negativity won't help, at all. Though, I understand the impulse. Just try to deny it. I may be wrong, but I think you can convince your body there is no hope. Convince it to give up.

Yeah, shit's rough. Just redirect your focus. It's all about where you put your focus.

The end result is: accept the circumstance, and also accept that it's treatable. And take it one day at a time.

Good luck, bro. Cancer fucking blows. Kick its ass.
