When you are told you have Cancer everyone is instantly faced with their mortality. This comes with huge emotions.. anxiety..fear of the unknown..becoming depressed as you feel your life is over etc. Then there is coping with the next inevitable steps…blood tests, scans surgery, more diagnosis and ongoing medical treatments. That’s a lot to navigate.
Support through this confronting time is just as important at the treatments. I was diagnosed with Cancer in 2019. In an instant I was faced with my mortality.. I struggled with making this fit with what I thought was a standard life plan..we are born, we grow, we experience life… then get old and pass away. Cancer smashes this cycle of life completely and that is what makes a Cancer journey confronting.
Hope is what I craved for beyond the medical Intervention I was receiving. Thank goodness I discovered the Radical Remission book by Dr Kelly Turner. This book gave me a glimmer of hope that I could live with cancer rather than die from it. The 10 healing factors and personal testimonials are well discussed and presented with optimism…hope…the thing I was wanting.
I am still on my cancer journey but have come to the conclusion that it will be part of my life forever but I can help myself beyond treatments by applying the healing factors into daily living.
The joy that I allowed the cancer to suck out of my life has returned..
The healing factor of re introducing joy back into my life has changed the way I feel and approach life. My new favourite saying is “Add living to life” The 10 healing factors presented by Justine in her Radical Remission course is well researched and well delivered with plenty of opportunity to engage and be part of. If you are a cancer patient I would highly recommended taking part in this course…just read the book first 🙂
