Hello, My name is Christina I'm a 50 year old Mother of five children and Grandmother of 6 grandchildren. I was diagnosed with stage 2 breast cancer. I'm a woman of faith but still having trouble with this. I was stuck in my house the first 2 weeks then went to church. I just needed to praise dance without saying anything to anyone. My emotions are everywhere.

Emotional ups and downs after a cancer diagnosis are completely normal, and finding comfort through faith and movement like praise dancing can be powerful ways to process these feelings. Many people in this community have found that allowing themselves to feel all their emotions - whether that's fear, anger, sadness, or hope - while staying connected to their spiritual practices and support systems helps them navigate this challenging journey one day at a time.
