Who here has had a doctor say to you "yes, it's cancer"

Can't just be me.....What did you do with that information? I'm a bit.....stunned. I never share my personal stuff but for some reason I feel compelled to share this. There might be folks here who can help me get it into perspective

Sorry to hear that. My grandmother, mother and 2 sisters have all been diagnosed with cancer.
My grandmother and mother are now deceased, but neither died of cancer.
My 2 sisters also went through surgery and chemo treatments, and both are currently in remission.
It’s not necessarily a death sentence, and it won’t necessarily make you thin either.
Do what you can to fight it (hopefully without having too much of an impact on your way of life). ❤️ 🤗
