Find YOUR doctor, not just A doctor.
For anyone who is suddenly diagnosed with a serious
illness or the possibility of a serious illness, determining what
steps to take next can be overwhelming. Finding the right doctor,
at a time when our mind is spinning, can seem truly beyond our ability.
When we are faced with a potential serious long term or life-threatening
illness, it becomes critical that whatever doctors we choose to
work with are doctors that we trust and like and feel really comfortable
with.
An advocate can be anyone--a friend, a partner, a child or parent,
or a professional who is trained to help.
What's wrong with being a Cancer Survivor?
After I was diagnosed with cancer, a friend of mine, who had also
been diagnosed with cancer some years earlier, invited me to join
a training and fitness group for anyone who had experienced cancer
called Capital of Texas Team Survivor. It was a wonderful message
to me that I would survive the cancer experience, which in that
time of fear and uncertainty was a very positive message.
