Happy Tuesday everyone. One of the final steps at MDA is being released to the Cancer Survivor floor. This is where I will go every year for check ups. I met my new doctor and they have many people come in and talk to you and help you with what is to come. The last step was a social worker that came in and talked to me. She asked me if I felt like a survivor. I really had to think about it. Didnt really know how to answer it. But when I told her No she was stunned. I said I dont think of it as being a survivor. I have always thought of it as a journey that God allowed me to go through to show me a thing or two. To show me life is short and that everything you go through will be used for his glory. I think she had this big lecture she had all planned out and had to change her direction. I said I have been blessed with all this. I use it to help others going through it. I show them that the journey will be hard and very long but they will get through it. You cant stop living because of what is happening to you. Live in the moment, not for tomorrow or next year. God placed many wonderful people in my life but Dirk has been the most amazing influence in my life. I feel without going through this journey I would still be stuck in the miserable rut of unhappiness and blaming everyone around me for it. We are the only ones who chose the way our life will turn out. So many chose the victim card but in the end choosing to be happy is the only way to live. So am I survivor? Yes I am but we are all survivors, arent we? Have a wonderful and blessed day and really think about what your focus is on. Put it on what matters. Because we were never promised tomorrow. Live for today. :)
