I have been a frightened child. I have been a spoiled brat. I have been abused. I have been a teenage mother. I have been a working mother. I have been a welfare mother. I have been depressed. I have been suicidal. What I was is not necessarily what I am now.
I am a cancer survivor. I am a fighter. I am a single mother. I am a sister, a daughter, an auntie, and a friend. I am the first university graduate in my family. I am bi-sexual. I am a military supporter. I am silly, goofy, introverted, exhibitionistic, on medication, and so many other things. I am breaking a pattern. Most of all I am hopeful.
Why should you read my journal on chemotherapy and life after breast cancer? I will give you a few reasons. First of all, if you have or have had cancer, I hope my journal will help you know what to expect, as well as maybe make you laugh and realize that it’s not all bad. Secondly, even if you don’t have cancer, I hope that my journal will show you that even when situations are tough, you can always choose to be tougher. Happiness is a choice, not a set of circumstances.
Sometimes the world we live in can suck, but life itself is always entirely awesome. Enjoy it!
